You can select one of four modes for white balance adjustment as follows:
- ATW1/ATW2(Auto-Tracing White Balance Mode): In these modes, the
color temperature is monitored continuously and thereby white balance is
set automatically. The following are the approximate supported color
temperature ranges in these modes.
ATW1 : 2500K ~ 9300K(
✻
1)
ATW2 : 2000K ~ 10000K(Mode recommended for sodium lighting)(
✻
2)
✻
1. If the color temperature is out of this range in ATW1 mode, proper
white balance may not be obtained. In that case, select ATW2 mode.
✻
2. In ATW2 mode, if one color is dominated in the shooted area, the
color can be displayed differently.
Therefore, select the mode which is appropriate for the environment.
- AWC(Auto-Tracing White Balance Control): In this mode, accurate white
balance is obtained by pressing [ENTER] while having a white paper in
front of the camera. White Balance data will be maintained after set it
once. AWC mode is best in locations where the color temperature of light
source is constant.
- MANU : If WHITE BAL menu is set to MANU mode, the user can set the
white Balance considering the current illumination. Select MANU item
