Manual White Balance Adjustment (M.W.B.)
This camcorder’s Automatic Colour Temperature system
senses the colour temperature of the ambient lighting for
automatic white balance adjustment. However, precise
colour adjustment is not possible under the following
conditions:
•When an object is in various shades of the same colour.
•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 on and off again, or when the
PROGRAM AE select dial’s position has been
changed.
● When adjusted by putting coloured paper in
front of the subject in step 2 (“ADJUST
FOCUS”), this unit makes its colour
temperature standard for automatic white
balance. So you can enjoy shooting with
different colours. For example, when adjusting
with red, blue or yellow colours, the image
becomes the colour which aproximates to
green, orange or purple respectively.
