WHITE BALANCE
Using the White Balance function, you can select a setting that
matches the light illuminating the subject you are shooting (Daylight,
Fluorescent, etc.) or let the camcorder make all adjustments
automatically. Based on your selection, the camcorder automatically
adjusts the color of the subject so the colors in your recording look
natural.
Select the Record (
/
) mode by pressing the MODE button.

Understanding White Balance:
The White Balance (WB) function removes unrealistic color casts,
so that objects which appear white are rendered white in your
photo. Proper white balance has to take into account the “color
temperature” of a light source, which refers to the relative warmth
or coolness of white light produced by the light source.
