WHITE BAL

Lights are generally denoted as color temperatures and expressed in Kelvin (K) units. The general light color temperatures are shown below.

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 shot area, the color can be displayed differently. Therefore, select the mode which is appropriate for the environment.

-AWC8 (Auto-Tracing White Balance Control): In this mode, accurate white balance is obtained by pressing the 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.
