Adjusting White Balance Manually
White Balance Adjustment recognizes the colour
of light and adjust so that the white colour will
become pure white. The Movie Camera
determines the hue of light that comes through
the Lens and White Balance Sensor, thereby
judging the recording condition, and selects the
closest hue setting. This function is called
Automatic White Balance Adjustment.
For light outside the functional Auto White
Balance Adjustment range, use the Manual White
Balance Adjustment Mode.

ªAbout White Balance Sensor

The White Balance Sensor (29) determines the
nature of the light source during recording.
≥Do not cover the White Balance Sensor with
your hand during recording because White
Balance will not function normally.
≥The red light from the Recording Lamp (27) will
be reflected off your hand or object, possibly
causing the White Balance sensor to operate
incorrectly and changing the colouring.
