Adjusting White Balance Manually
White Balance Adjustment recognizes the colour of light and adjusts so that white will appear pure white. The Movie Camera determines the hue of light that comes through the Lens and White Balance Sensor, thereby judging the recording condition, and selects the closest hue setting. This function is called Automatic White Balance Adjustment.
For light outside the functional Auto White Balance Adjustment range, use the Manual White Balance Adjustment Mode.
