Table of Contents Search image Notes Set [White Balance] to [Auto] or adjust the color in [One Push] under white or cool white fluorescent lamps. When you select [One Push], keep framing white objects. While the camcorder is recording a movie, is grayed out and [One Push] cannot be set. Tips If you have changed the battery pack while [Auto] was selected, or taken your camcorder outdoors after inside use (or vice versa), aim your camcorder at a nearby white object for about 10 seconds for better color balance adjustment. When the white balance has been set with [One Push], if the lighting conditions changed by bringing your camcorder outdoors from inside the house, or vice versa, you need to redo the [One Push] procedure to readjust the white balance. Spot Meter/Fcs (Spot meter/ focus) You can adjust the brightness and focus for the selected subject simultaneously. This function enables you to use [Spot Meter] (p. 73) and [Spot Focus] (p. 73) at the same time.

Spot Focus You can select and adjust the focal point to aim it at a subject not located at the center of the screen. Touch the subject of which you want to adjust the brightness and focus. To adjust the brightness and focus automatically, touch [Auto]. Notes [Exposure] and [Focus] are automatically set to [Manual]. [Auto] is set when the focus is set to [DMF] in photo shooting mode. Touch the subject of which you want to adjust the focus. To adjust the focus automatically, touch [Auto]. Notes [Focus] is automatically set to [Manual].
