Adjusting White Balance Manually
White Balance Adjustment recognizes the colour
of light and adjusts so that white will appear pure
white. The Movie Camera 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 function is called Automatic White Balance
Adjustment.
For light outside the functional Auto White
Balance Adjustment range, use the Manual White
Balance Adjustment Mode.
