• A subject can be recorded under various types of lighting conditions

indoors (natural, fluorescent, candlelight, etc.). Because the color

temperature is different depending on the light source, the subject's

tint will differ, affecting the subject's white balance. Use this function

to correct the white balance and provide a more natural result.

• When you set white balance manually, the object you frame must

be white. Otherwise your camcorder may not detect an appropriate

setting value.

• The adjusted setting remains until you set the white balance again.
• During normal outdoor recording, setting to Auto may provide better

results.

• Cancel the digital zoom function for a clear and precise setting.
• Reset the white balance if light conditions change.
