5. Press the [MENU] button for 2 seconds to exit from menu. 6. Press the button. The auto white balance adjustment (AWB) is performed, and the white balance setting is entered. [Note]  The white balance cannot be adjusted when color bars are displayed. Press the [MODE] button to switch to the camera picture.  White balance may not be correctly set if the lighting of the object is too weak.  Since the unit has a built-in memory, the set white balance will remain in the memory even if power is turned off. Therefore, it is not necessary to reset the white balance if the color temperature of those objects remains unchanged. However, it must be reset if the color temperature changes, such as when you move from indoors to outside, or vice versa. Auto Tracking White Balance Adjustment (ATW) When white balance adjustment is set to "ATW", the white balance will be corrected automatically, even if the light source or color temperature changes. This function works when "ATW" is selected instead of "AWB A" or "AWB B" by following the steps for "Automatic adjustment" in "Automatic Adjustment (AWB: AWB A or AWB B)" (page 30). [Note]  ATW might not function properly when high brightness light (ex. fluorescent lamp) beams into a screen.  White balance may not be accurately set if there is no white object in the scene being shot.  The white balance may shift out of adjustment when a different kind of light source such as sunlight or fluorescent lighting applies. 3200K and 5600K Presets When "3200K" or "5600K" is selected for the white balance, the white balance is set using a color temperature of 3200K (equivalent to halogen light) or 5600K (equivalent to daylight), respectively. This function works when "3200K" or "5600K" is selected instead of "AWB A" or "AWB B" in the "Automatic adjustment" procedure in "Automatic Adjustment (AWB: AWB A or AWB B)". 32

5.
Press the
[MENU]
button for
2
seconds to exit from menu.
6.
Press the <
SET
> button.
The auto white balance adjustment (AWB) is performed, and the white balance setting is entered.
[Note]
The white balance cannot be adjusted when color bars are displayed. Press the
[MODE]
button to switch to the
camera picture.
White balance may not be correctly set if the lighting of the object is too weak.
Since the unit has a built-in memory, the set white balance will remain in the memory even if power is turned off.
Therefore, it is not necessary to reset the white balance if the color temperature of those objects remains
unchanged. However, it must be reset if the color temperature changes, such as when you move from indoors to
outside, or vice versa.
Auto Tracking White Balance Adjustment (ATW)
When white balance adjustment is set to “ATW”, the white balance will be corrected automatically, even if the light
source or color temperature changes.
This function works when “ATW” is selected instead of “AWB A” or “AWB B” by following the steps for “Automatic
adjustment” in “
Automatic Adjustment (AWB: AWB A or AWB B)
” (page
30).
[Note]
ATW might not function properly when high brightness light (ex. fluorescent lamp) beams into a screen.
White balance may not be accurately set if there is no white object in the scene being shot.
The white balance may shift out of adjustment when a different kind of light source such as sunlight or fluorescent
lighting applies.
3200K and 5600K Presets
When “3200K” or “5600K” is selected for the white balance, the white balance is set using a color temperature of
3200K (equivalent to halogen light) or 5600K (equivalent to daylight), respectively.
This function works when “3200K” or “5600K” is selected instead of “AWB A” or “AWB B” in the “Automatic adjustment”
procedure in
Automatic Adjustment (AWB: AWB A or AWB B)
”.
