Automatic white balance
The "COLOR" function makes it possible to adapt the camera chip
to the ambient light so that color-neutral images can be acquired.
Whenever possible, use a neutral gray chart or another color-
neutral object to attain optimum results.
Activating automatic white balance
1. Press the button
on the remote control.
2. Call up the "COLOR" entry.
3. Set the value for "WB MODE" to "AUTO".
4. Press the
button to leave the menu.
The values for "RED LEVEL", "BLUE LEVEL" and "BLACK LEVEL" cannot
be adjusted if the "WB MODE" setting is set to "AUTO".
The color values are continually adjusted to achieve the most color-
neutral picture possible if automatic white balance is enabled. This
is often very bothersome for monochromatic specimens. In that case,
enable manual white balance.
