Set the exposure mode to “P”, “S” or “A”.
!
The camera’s auto focus function may be unable to focus on
a subject such as a white sheet of paper, which will prevent
the shutter from operating.
!
While a custom white balance can also be measured in “M
mode, the image may be extremely overexposed or
underexposed so that the optimum measurement is not
taken.
Hold up a page of white paper or a similar object
under the target light source so that the paper
fills the viewfinder screen. Then press the shutter
button to set the custom white balance.

If the exposure is measured correctly,
7” appears on the LCD monitor.
Press the “MENU/OK” button to confirm the setting.
Selects the color space used when pictures are
taken. For normal photography, select sRGB.
Adobe RGB (1998) is best for images to be used
for commercial printing.
WIDE: Allows photography using a wide dynamic
range that takes advantage of the particular
characteristics of the Super CCD SR II. The
continuous shooting speed and interval are
slower than for standard mode (roughly
double), so the number of continuous shots
available roughly half.
STANDARD: The dynamic range is 100%, as on
the previous digital camera (FinePix
S2 Pro), but the continuous shooting
speed and the number of continuous
shots available are increased for
easier shooting.
!
After taking the picture, check the color tones (white balance)
in the image.
i Select “PREVIEW” as the photographed image display
option (P.103) in the SET-UP screen.
i Press the “PLAY” button (P.43).
When you have finished setting the white balance, select the
focus mode you want to use.
When the exposure is not measured correctly
Remedy
The subject is too bright. Use a negative (–) exposure compensation value and set the
white balance again.
The subject is too dark. Use a positive (+) exposure compensation value and set the white
balance again.
Because the exposure is outside the range of valid custom white balance settings, the
maximum (or minimum) value has been set.
h Available custom WB settings: Color temperatures of approx. 2800 K to 9500 K

Matching customized white balance using an external flash
If you use an external flash with the exposure mode set to “M”, you can make it easier to match the
white balance to the photography settings (aperture, flash brightness, etc.) by using a commercially
available 18% grey standard chart instead of white paper.
