Correcting Greenish Image Areas from Mercury 
Lamps
 Still Images

In [
] mode, subjects or background in shots of evening scenes 
illuminated by mercury lamps may appear to have a greenish tinge. This 
greenish tinge can be corrected automatically when shooting, using Multi-
area White Balance.
 
Press the [
] button, choose [Hg 
Lamp Corr.] on the [ ] tab, and then 
choose [On] (= 29).
 
Once the setting is complete, [ ] is 
displayed.
 
To restore the original setting, repeat this 
process but choose [Off].
 
After you are finished shooting under mercury lamps, you should 
set [Hg Lamp Corr.] back to [Off]. Otherwise, green hues not 
caused by mercury lamps may be corrected by mistake.
 
Try taking some test shots first to make sure you obtain the 
desired results.
 
In continuous shooting (= 44), this setting is set to [Off] and 
cannot be changed.
