Adjustments and Settings for Recording
4-1 Adjusting the Black
Balance and the White
Balance
Conditions may require that both the black balance and the white balance
be adjusted.
The black balance will require adjustment in the following cases.
• When the camcorder is first used
• When the camcorder is used under conditions in which the surrounding
temperature has changed greatly
• When the GAIN selector values have been changed
It is not usually necessary to adjust the black balance when using the
camcorder after it has been briefly off.
Always readjust the white balance when the lighting conditions change.
If the black balance or white balance adjustment is started when the
display mode is set to 2 or 3, messages that report on the adjustment
progress and results are displayed on the viewfinder screen. Change the
display mode to 1 to suppress these messages.
For information about setting the display mode, see Section 4-8-3 “Display Mode
and Setting Change and Adjustment Progress Messages” (page 4-61).
