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.

(29)(27)

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.
