Description of Parameters
White Balance |
Under certain light conditions, the color truthfulness of white may vary. White balance is used to correct this kind of color variation.
Select one of the following profiles for white balance:
Automatic WB |
The factory default setting should produce the best results with most applications. |
Cloudy/Hazy |
If the automatic setting does not deliver satisfactory results in settings with a very cloudy sky, try using the Cloudy/Hazy profile for white balance. |
Outdoor |
If the automatic setting does not deliver satisfactory results in outdoor settings, try using the Outdoor profile for white balance. |
Sunny |
If the automatic setting does not deliver satisfactory results in settings with a very sunny sky, try using the Sunny profile for white balance. |
Fluorescent Lamp |
If the automatic setting does not deliver satisfactory results in settings with many fluorescent lamps, try using the Fluorescent Lamp profile for white balance. |
Incandescent Lamp |
If the automatic setting does not deliver satisfactory results in settings illuminated by incandescent lamps, try using the Incandescent Lamp profile for white balance. |

Color Saturation |
Color saturation controls the color intensity. The higher the saturation, the more intense are the colors. The value -10 produces a gray-scale image.

The camera displays the current color settings of the image sensors at the end of the dialog.
