ªAbout White Balance Sensor

The White Balance Sensor 1 determines the nature of the light source during recording.

Do not cover the White Balance Sensor with your hand during recording. Otherwise, White Balance will not function normally.

The red light from the Tally Lamp 2 will be reflected off your hand or object, possibly causing the White Balance sensor to operate incorrectly and changing the colouring.
