Advanced Recording Operations Adjusting the white balance White balance adjustment makes white subjects look white and allows more natural color balance for camera recording. Normally, white balance is automatically adjusted. You can obtain better results by adjusting the white balance manually when lighting conditions change quickly or when recording outdoors: e.g., neon signs, fireworks.

The white balance indicator appears on the LCD screen or in the viewfinder. (3) Turn the SEL/PUSH EXEC dial to select the appropriate white balance mode under the following conditions.
