Colour Temperature and White Balance
Adjustment

Every light source has its own colour temperature measured in
Kelvin (K). The higher the Kelvin value, the more bluish the
light; the lower the value, the more reddish the light. The
Kelvin value is related to the tint of the light, but not directly to
its brightness.

The range O indicated in the illustration above shows the light

sources for which this Movie Camera can provide precise
white balance adjustment and, therefore, natural colours in the
recorded pictures, when using the Full Auto Mode. For light
sources outside this range, adjust the white balance manually.
(-» 56) Also, additional lighting may be necessary.
