Shooting Functions

The color of a photo depends on the type and quality of the light source. 
If you want the color of your photo to be realistic, select an appropriate 
lighting condition to calibrate the white balance, such as Auto WB, 
Daylight, Cloudy, or Tungsten, or adjust color temperature manually. 
You can also adjust color for the preset light sources so that the colors 
of the photo match the actual scene under mixed lighting conditions.
