WHITE BALANCE
Using the White Balance function, you can select a setting that
matches the light illuminating the subject you are shooting (Daylight,
Fluorescent, etc.) or let the camcorder make all adjustments
automatically. Based on your selection, the camcorder automatically
adjusts the colour of the subject so the colours in your recording
look natural.
Select the Record ( / ) mode by pressing the MODE button.

Understanding White Balance:

The White Balance (WB) function removes unrealistic colour
casts, so that objects which appear white are rendered white in
your photo. Proper white balance has to take into account the
“colour temperature” of a light source, which refers to the relative
warmth or coolness of white light produced by the light source.
