White balance adjustment

wwWhite balance adjustment

In order for the white to be reproduced accurately, the ratio between the three primary colors (RGB) is adjusted. If the white balance has shifted out of adjustment, not only will the white be reproduced poorly but the color tones of the entire screen will also be degraded.

ppThis adjustment must be performed when using the unit for the first time or when the unit has not been used for a prolonged period.

ppIt must be performed when the lighting conditions or brightness has changed.

As the type of adjustment used, AWB (automatic white balance adjustment) which is used to adjust the white balance when the AWB button on the controller is pressed, ATW (automatic tracking white balance adjustment) which is used to keep adjusting the white balance at all times, or manual adjustment can be selected.

The results of the AWB adjustment can be stored in two memories, A and B, when “AWB A” or “AWB B” has been selected for the white balance.

ppOnce the white balance values have been adjusted, their setup procedure will be completed simply by selecting them using the camera menus or web settings, or by pressing the buttons on the controller, provided that they are going to be used under the same conditions as the ones established when the values were set.

There is no need to set it again.

ppOnce a new setting is entered, the previous setting will be erased.

Use the two memories to store settings corresponding to different shooting conditions.
