The subject is mostly highly-colored.

The photographic atmosphere is under the bright blue sky or at nightfall.

The illumination of the light illuminating the subject is insufficient.

ATW2: Activates the sodium lamp automatic color temperature tracking mode. The camera automatically achieves an optimal white balance under the sodium lamp. The adjustment of the color temperature ranges from approx. 2 000 K to 6 000 K.

AWC: Activates the automatic white balance control mode. This adjustment is suitable for a location where a light source is sta- ble. The adjustment of the color temperature ranges from approx. 2 000 K to 10 000 K. When "AWC" is selected, the white balance needs to be adjusted.

When "AWC" is selected, follow the steps below to adjust the white balance.
