However, if you want to revise colors influenced by time of a day, weather, location, etc., it is recommended that you revise them just before recording. • If you change the setting of the white balance value, [WB SHIFT] of PICTURE PROFILE, [SATURATION], and [PHASE], color range and phase adjusted will change. If the above settings have changed from when you set the Color Correction, check the Color Correction setting before recording. • When the white balance is adjusted automatically, the white balance setting may vary automatically depending on the object. To use the Color Correction effectively, adjust the white balance manually.
