White Balance
The human eye adapts to changes in lighting so that white objects look white under all kinds of lighting. Cameras determine white from the color temperature of lighting and, based on this, apply image processing to make color tones look natural in your shots.
[] Auto White Balance
With [] (Ambience priority), you can slightly increase the intensity of the image's warm color cast when shooting a tungsten-light scene.
If you select [] (White priority), you can reduce the intensity of the image's warm color cast.
