Manual White Balance Adjustment (M.W.B.)
This camcorder’s Automatic Color Temperature system
senses the color temperature of the ambient lighting for
automatic white balance adjustment. However, precise color
adjustment is not possible under the following conditions:
• When an object is in various shades of the same color.
• When a predominantly red or brown object is being shot
outdoors.
In these cases, use the camcorder’s built-in preset filters for
white balance adjustment.

NOTES:
● To switch to automatic white balance adjustment, press SET until the indication disappears, or turn the PROGRAM AE
select dial to “AUTO LOCK”.
● Re-adjust the White Balance when the lighting has changed, when the camcorder has been turned off and on again, or
when the PROGRAM AE select dial’s position has been changed.
● It is helpful to connect your camcorder to a color monitor when adjusting the white balance (“Basic Connections”
੬
pg. 33).
● When adjusted by putting colored paper in front of the subject in step 2 (“ADJUST FOCUS”), this unit makes its color
temperature standard for automatic white balance. So you can enjoy shooting with different colors. For example, when
adjusting with red, blue or yellow colors, the image becomes the color which aproximates to green, orange or purple
respectively.
