Q.
4 The message, Take photo of white or gray object

be displayed.
When the message clears from the display, the viewfinder and
shooting information white balance displays will flash as shown at
right.

and press the shutter-release button all the way down.
White balance can be measured even when the camera is not in focus.

balance, the message Data acquired. will be
displayed.
White balance will automatically be set to the measured value.
If the warning shown at right is displayed, the camera was unable
to measure white balance. Return to step 2 and measure white
balance again.
B Measuring Value
Note that if a new value is measured for white balance, white balance will be set to the measured
value even if Use photo is currently selected.
Use a standard “gray card“, or other reflectivity card intended for white balance measurement, with
18% reflectivity (available separately) to measure a precise white balance value.
Do not alter exposure from the value selected by the camera; when shooting in mode d, use the
electronic analog exposure display to select optimum exposure.
C Other Ways to Measure a Value
The following methods can also be used to measure a value for preset white balance.
To proceed directly to step 4 without displaying the shooting menu, select Preset manual for
white balance in the Quick settings display (A 52) and press Q for a few seconds.
If White balance is selected for Custom Setting 11 (F/G button; A 112), pressing G for a few
seconds when preset manual is in effect will display the indicators shown in step 4.
