Camera Connect app -- white balance buttons are grayed

trovatore — Fri, 07 Sep 2018 04:45:23 GMT

Using the Camera Connect app with a G1X Mark III, set to Manual. I go to "remote live view shooting". It connects to the camera over wi-fi.

At the bottom of the app, there is a row with "Zoom" lit up, then a flash icon (grayed), a cloud icon (grayed), some symbol I don't know the name of (grayed), AF followed by a box (lit up), a rectangle (lit up), and then my format choice (grayed).

It seems like I should be able to adjust at least some of these, in particular the white balance (which I guess is what the cloud icon represents -- cloudy day?).

Hi Trovatore,

Thanks for posting.

Which shooting mode are you using? Some shooting options are only available in your camera's "creative" modes, such as "P", "Tv", "Av" or "M".

Hi Richard! Thanks for answering. It is definitely set on M. I re-checked before responding to you.
