Performing Manual White Balance
Certain lighting conditions can cause auto white balance to
take a very long time or can result in a limitation of the ad-
justable range (color temperature). If you suspect your cur-
rent lighting conditions are causing problems, try performing
manual white balance. This sets white balance to a level that
can be used under any lighting conditions.
The following procedure describes how to perform manual
white balance using a white piece of paper. For optimum re-
sults, you should use a special reflective plate that should be
commercially available from a local camera equipment
shop.
