Automatic white balance control (AWB: AWB A/AWB B)

When “AWB A” or “AWB B” has been selected as the white balance setting on the Color Set sub menu (pages 62, 70), two sets of color temperature conditions can be preset (stored in the memory): one set for A and another set for B.

When the camera is going to be used under the same conditions, you may operate the camera properly by simply changing the white balance mode to either AWB A or AWB B.

There is no need to readjust the camera to the ambient conditions.

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

1.Select the white balance mode either AWB A or AWB B.

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.

For white balance setting aim the camera at a white object and try to position it in the center of the monitor screen. The object must appear in over 10 % of the total monitor screen area. Try to avoid overly bright objects in the scene.

3.In normal shooting mode, press the ENTER/AWB switch for over 2 seconds to set the white balance.
