Question :
The colors in my pictures look different from the actual colors of my subject. What can I do? [White Balance (WB)]
Answer:
Select a white balance (WB) setting that is more appropriate for the lighting conditions.
In the default white balance mode, WB is set to AUTO so you can take pictures with natural colors in most lighting conditions.
The colors in pictures may differ from the subject's actual colors under the following lighting conditions:
- When the subject is in the shade on a sunny day
- When the subject is illuminated by both natural light and indoor lighting (e.g. near a window)
- When the light from the camera's flash does not reach a subject lit by indoor lighting
In cases like these, select the white balance setting that is designed to capture accurate colors in the specific lighting conditions.
To select white balance settings, the mode dial must be set to any shooting mode except iAUTO.
The following table describes the available white balance settings:
