White balance (WB) is for making the white areas look white. Normally, 
the Auto [Q] (Ambience priority) or [Qw] (White priority) setting will 
obtain the correct white balance. If natural-looking colors cannot be 
obtained with Auto, you can select the white balance to match the light 
source or set it manually by shooting a white object.
In the <A> mode, [Q] (Ambience priority) is automatically set.
