Richard, when you say the camera has automatic white balance, what do
you mean? How does it balance it? How do you tell it what is white?
And if it's automatic, how does it do it?
Usually, every camera I've ever owned even the cheapest, let's you point
to a white object and hit a button so it can adjust to that being white.
Does your manual in the Sony Digital 8 explain how it can possible
determine a white subject on it's own (automatically)?
It might have settings for daylight, tungsten, florescent etc...I can
understand that, but auto, how?
