White Balance
Press the U button to adjust white balance settings in the information display. Rotate the main command dial to choose the white balance mode and rotate the sub-command dial to choose a sub-option for v (auto) or I (fluorescent) mode, the color temperature (mode K, “choose color temperature”), or white balance preset (preset manual mode). In modes other than K (“choose color temperature”) and preset manual, you can use the multi-selector to fine-tune white balance on the amber (A)–blue (B) and green (G)–magenta (M) axes.
