you switch it on.

If you switch from Suppressed Flash mode to
another flash mode, you may find that the displayed

Change the white balance setting when you
want to take a picture with the white balance
fixed for the surroundings and lighting when the
picture is taken.
In Auto mode, the correct white balance may not
be obtained for subjects such as close-ups of
people's faces and shots taken under a special
light source. In such situations, select the correct
white balance for the light source. See P.68 for
more information on the white balance.
