Important
• Since the light source selection options are based on
representative characteristics, proper colors may not be
achieved depending on the applicable light source. In this
case, use the [One-shot WB] function.
• If the subject looks greenish under mercury lamps in the
[Auto] mode, select the [Mercury Lamp] mode under light
source. If the image is still not shown in appropriate colors
under mercury lamps when the [Mercury Lamp] mode is
selected under light source, use the [Auto] mode.
• When the subject has only one color or when sodium lamps,
mercury lamps and certain other fluorescent lightings are
used, camera colors may not be adjusted automatically.
• When [Day/Night] is set to [Night Mode] (including when it is
set to [Auto] and night mode is judged to be applicable), the
white balance function cannot be used.
• Notes on capturing video continuously day and night
If a subject that seldom changes is captured in a location
where the light source changes gradually, such as when
capturing a subject continuously day and night, the image
may not be shown in appropriate colors.
In the above case, applying changes to the image to capture
will achieve the appropriate colors.
