48 Adjustments and Settings for Recording : Adjusting the White balance and Black Balance
The black balance must be adjusted when:
z You use your unit the first time;
z Your unit has not been used for some time;
z The ambient temperature has changed substantially;
z The gain switchover value has been changed; or
z S.GAIN (super gain) has been set with the USER MAIN/
USER1/USER2 button.
1
Set the switches as illustrated below.
2
Tilt the AUTO W/B BAL switch so that it is positioned
at [ABB], then release it.
The switch returns to the central position with the
black balance automatically adjusted.
3
During adjustment, the viewfinder displays the
following message:
‹ Note
During adjustment, the lens iris automatically
becomes CLOSE.
4
The adjustment will take effect in a few seconds and
the following message will appear:
The adjusted value is automatically stored in the
memory.
‹ Notes
z Ensure that the lens connector is connected and
the lens iris is CLOSE.
z During a black balance adjustment, light is
automatically cut off.
z During a black balance adjustment, the gain
switchover circuit is automatically switched.
The viewfinder screen may flicker and/or display
noise; this is not a failure.
z If you find the black shading annoying after
performing an auto black balance adjustment,
adjust the black shading. To do so, go to the menu
option DETECTION (DIG), move the cursor (
> ),
then press the JOG dial button. The menu option
DETECTION (DIG) can be found in the <BLACK
SHADING> screen, which is accessible from the
MAINTENANCE page.
Note that pressing the ABB switch for longer than five
seconds automatically performs an auto black
balance adjustment, followed by an automatic black
shading adjustment. (For more information, see the
menu option SHD. ABB SW CTL in [SW MODE]
(page 175).)
However, when the remote control unit (AJ-RC10G:
optional accessory) is connected, automatic black
shading cannot be executed even if the ABB switch is
held down.
z To cancel the automatic black balance adjustment
in process (the viewfinder displays “ABB ACTIVE”),
flip the AUTO W/B BAL switch down to [ABB] again.
If automatic adjustment is cancelled, the value in
effect before automatic adjustment will be used.
Each value in memory is retained even if the camera-
recorder is turned off.
