Explanation of terms
Automatic white balance
White balance adjustment recognizes the color
of light and adjusts so the white color will
become a purer white. The unit determines the
hue of light that comes through the lens and
white balance sensor, thereby judging the
recording condition, and selects the closest hue
setting.
This is called automatic white balance
adjustment.
However, since the unit only stores white color
information under several light sources,
automatic white balance adjustment does not
function normally under other light sources.
The illustration above shows the range over
which the auto white balance functions.
