Option Photo live view display WB Split-screen display zoom Description During live view photography, the white balance (hue) of the monitor can be set to a value different from that used for photographs (0 159). This can be effective if the lighting under which shots are framed is different from that used when the photographs are taken, as is sometimes the case when a flash or preset manual white balance is used. Adjusting the photo live view display white balance to produce a similar effect to that used for the actual photographs makes it easier to picture the results. To use the same white balance for both the view in the monitor and the photograph, select None. Monitor white balance is reset when the camera is turned off, but the last value used can be selected by pressing the a button while pressing and holding the U button. View two separate areas of the frame side-by-side (0 52). This option can be used, for example, to align buildings with the horizon. 51
