mode.
• It is recommended that an automatic exposure mode such as
P
,
A
, or
S
be
used when capturing a custom white balance setting to ensure proper exposure.
• It may be necessary to set the lens to manual focus (P.45) when capturing a
custom white balance setting since auto focus may not work properly when
photographing low contrast subjects.
