AUTOMATIC WHITE BALANCE CONTROL (AWC)

There are two white balance memories, “AWC A” or “AWC B” for two different light sources color tempera- tures, with the automatic white balance setting. Then, when the two different light sources are encountered, you may operate the camera properly by simply change the white balance mode to either AWC A or AWC B. There is no need to readjust the camera to the ambient conditions.

*The preset conditions will be renewed whenever you input new conditions.

2.Aim the camera at a white object (a white wall or a white handkerchief) and zoom in to enlarge the image as much as possible.
