How to Adjust

_ White balance adjustment

Adjust the white balance after shooting a white object by at least 50% of the screen. NOTE: If the white signal level is over 100% or less than 50%, the white balance may

not be normally adjusted.

The video camera reproduces color differences with high fidelity and the color of an object somewhat different from what appears to the human eye.

Therefore, there is a need to adjust the white balance in order to correct differences between color temperatures.

NOTE

Color temperature outdoors may vary depending on weather conditions.
