You can select one of four modes for white balance adjustment as follows:

- ATW1/ATW2(Auto-Tracing White Balance Mode): In these modes, the

color temperature is monitored continuously and thereby white balance is
set automatically. The following are the approximate supported color
temperature ranges in these modes.

ATW1 : 2500K ~ 9300K(

1)

ATW2 : 2000K ~ 10000K(Mode recommended for sodium lighting)(

2)

1. If the color temperature is out of this range in ATW1 mode, proper

white balance may not be obtained. In that case, select ATW2 mode.

2. In ATW2 mode, if one color is dominated in the shooted area, the

color can be displayed differently.
Therefore, select the mode which is appropriate for the environment.

- AWC(Auto-Tracing White Balance Control): In this mode, accurate white

balance is obtained by pressing [ENTER] while having a white paper in
