Canon EOS R5 C Advanced User Guide VIDEO edition - Page 83

White Balance 3 Press the Å button. • The Å A or Å B icon will flash quickly. • Make sure the gray card or white object fills the center of the screen until the procedure is completed. • Once the icon stops flashing, the procedure is completed. The setting is retained even if you turn off the 83 camera. NOTES • Readjust the custom white balance if the light source changes. • Very rarely and depending on the light source, Å may keep flashing (it will change to a slow flashing). In that case, change the subject brightness and adjust the custom white balance again. • After the camera registers a custom white balance, the color temperature or CC value may appear in gray. This indicates that the value registered exceeds the range of values that can be displayed but the white balance is correctly calibrated and you can continue shooting. Color Temperature/Preset White Balance 1 Select the ¼ or É icon (preset white balance), or the È icon (color temperature setting) (A 82). • To apply the stored preset setting or color temperature as is, the rest of the procedure is not necessary. To adjust the color temperature or CC value, continue the procedure. 2 Press the Å button. • The camera will enter the direct setting mode with the color temperature highlighted in orange. To adjust the CC value, push the joystick right. • You can also adjust the color temperature or CC value using direct touch control (A 56). 3 Select the desired value. • The selected color temperature and CC value will be set and will appear on the screen next to the white balance icon. White balance mode/setting ¼ (daylight) É (tungsten lamp) È (color temperature) Adjustment range Color temperature (K) Color compensation (CC) value 4,300 K to 8,000 K 2,700 K to 3,700 K -5 to +5 2,000 K to 15,000 K -20 to +20 NOTES • You can use the > [v Camera Setup] > [C. Temp. Increment] setting to change the units for the color temperature increment to [Mired] (5-mired increments) or [Kelvin] (100-kelvin increments). Even when [Mired] is selected, the color temperature is converted to and displayed in kelvins. Changing this setting may change the white balance setting. • If you set > [B System Setup] > [Grip Control Dial], [Top Control Dial] or [Control Ring] to [White Balance (K)] or [White Balance (CC)], you can adjust the color temperature (K) value and the color compensation (CC) value using the control dials or control ring of an RF lens.
