Color: White balance
Besides sunlight, there are other sources for illuminating the subject, such as tungsten and
fluorescent lighting. These types of lighting contain particular colors; therefore, the same
white object shot under different lighting has slightly different colors. Even under the same
sunlight, the colors in the picture differ depending on the sky conditions, the shadows of trees
or buildings, and other factors. White balance automatically corrects the effects from these
types of lighting and enables shooting with the right colors. You can usually obtain the right
colors with the white balance set to [AUTO]. Depending on the shooting conditions, however,
you may not be able to obtain the intended colors. In this case, change the setting
accordingly.
