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.

Outside of the effective range of Automatic White Balance Adjustment, the image will become reddish or bluish. Even within the effective range of Automatic White Balance Adjustment, the Automatic White Balance Adjustment may not function properly if there is more than one light source. In this case, adjust the White Balance.
