White Balance Adjustment

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.

SELECT SHOOTING MODE

1 Set the Shooting Mode selector to “PRESET”.

SELECT FUNCTION

2 Press MWB (Manual White Balance) until the required indication appears in the viewfinder.

“MWB” .... With a memorized personal White

Balance setting (see below) “ ” ......... Outdoors on sunny day

” ........Outdoors on cloudy day

” ..........Light source is halogen or tungsten lamp

MWB sets the colour temperature for the subject’s light source so you can shoot with natural colours that are unaffected by surroundings, even when there are multiple subjects with different colour temperatures.

SELECT SHOOTING MODE

1 Set the Shooting Mode selector to ”PRESET”.

ADJUST FOCUS

2 Point the camcorder at a white, flat object such as a sheet of white paper, and adjust focus manually (pg. 21).

ADJUST WHITE BALANCE

3 Press MWB until “MWB” appears, then press and hold MWB for more than 3 seconds.

•“MWB” blinks in the viewfinder during adjustment, then stops blinking but stays lit when adjustment is complete.

NOTES:

To switch to automatic white balance adjustment, press MWB until the indication disappears, or turn the Shooting Mode selector to “FULL AUTO”.

Re-adjust the White Balance mode when the lighting has changed, when the camcorder has been turned on and off again, or when the Shooting Mode selector’s position has been changed.

It is helpful to connect your camcorder to a colour monitor when adjusting the white balance (“Basic Connections” pg. 33).

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.
