Adjusting the white balance manually
If the picture is being taken in a studio lit by TV lighting
We recommend that you record in the INDOOR mode.
When you record under fluorescent lighting
Select AUTO or HOLD.
Your camcorder may not adjust the white balance correctly in the INDOOR mode.
In the AUTO mode
Point your camcorder at the white subject for about 10 seconds after setting the POWER
switch to CAMERA to get better adjustment when:
– You take out the battery for replacement.
– You bring your camcorder from indoors to outdoors holding the exposure, or vice
versa.
In the HOLD mode
Set the white balance to AUTO and reset to HOLD after a few seconds when:
– You change the PROGRAM AE mode.
– You bring your camcorder from indoors to outdoors, or vice versa.
