Adjusting the white balance setting
The PhotoPC 3000Z has three white balance settings that
are accessible when the Program or Manual camera mode
is selected, one of which is a custom setting that you can
make yourself.
When to adjust the white balance
Your camera’s white balance default setting is AUTO.
When AUTO is selected, the camera adjusts the white
balance automatically. At certain times you may want to
manually adjust the white balance setting so that the colors
in your images appear more realistic.
For example, make FIX the white balance setting when
taking pictures at dusk to increase the reddish color tones in
your images. However, keep the white balance set to AUTO
when taking pictures under white light to avoid a green tone
in your images.
If you are an experienced user, and you want to make your
own custom white balance settings, see “Making a custom
white balance setting” on page 4-10.
