Description

Using the camera White Balance correction function on the EOS 1D Mark II, EOS 1D Mark II N, and EOS 1Ds Mark II.

Solution

You can correct the standard color temperature for the white balance setting. This adjustment will have the same effect as using a color temperature conversion or color compensating filter. Each color can be corrected to one of nine levels.

Users familiar with using color temperature conversion or color compensating filters will find this feature handy.

1. Hold down the <WB> button and press the <> button.
  • Continue holding down the <WB> button.  You can let go of the <> button.

2. Hold down the <WB> button and turn the <> or <> dial.
  • The <> dial adjusts blute (B) and amber (A), and the <> dial adjusts magenta (M) and green (G).
  • You can adjust blue (B)/amber (A) and magenta (M)/green (G).
  • To cancel white balance correction, return the setting to 0 .
  • During the adjustment, <> will be displayed in the viewfinder.
  • One level of the blue/amber correction is equivalent to 5 mireds of a color temperature conversion filter. (Mired: measuring unit indicating the density of a color temperature conversion filter. )
  • You can also set white balance bracketing and AEB shooting in addition to the white balance correction.
