White Balance (WHITE BAL)
1. Move the cursor to WHITE BAL, and then tilt the
joystick left or right to select a white balance mode
(ATW1/ ATW2/ AWC).
(1) Auto-Tracing White Balance Mode (ATW1/ATW2)
In this mode, the camera continually monitors
the color temperature of the light source and
automatically adjusts white balance.
ATW1:
2,700 K to 6,000 K.
This is the factory default setting.
ATW2:
2,000 K to 6,000 K (Mode recommended
for sodium lighting)
Proper white balance may not be possible under
the following conditions. In such cases, use the
AWC while balance mode.
• When the subject contains mostly dark colors
• When the light source is a deep blue sky or
twilight
• When illumination of the subject is low
(2) Auto-Tracing White Balance Control (AWC)
In this mode, the supported color temperature
range is approx. 2,000 K to 10,000 K. This mode
is best in locations where the light source is
constant.
(a) To select AWC, tilt the joystick left and select
AWC
→
PUSH SET.
(b) Press the CAM (SET) button to start white
balance adjustment. PUSH SET is highlighted
on the display while white balance adjustment is
being performed.
• PUSH SET becomes unhighlighted again when
white balance adjustment is complete. Tilt the
joystick right to display AWC.
• If white balance adjustment cannot be completed
for some reason, PUSH SET will remain
highlighted on the display. If this happens, it could
mean that the color temperature is outside the
supported range, or that illumination is too low.
2. Select ATW1, ATW2, and AWC, then press the CAM
(SET) button, either the ATW setting menu or the AWC
setting menu appears, and you can fine tune the
white balance.
Move the cursor to R or B, and then tilt the joystick left
or right to fine tune the level. The R is red and the B is
blue, moving in the + direction makes the colors
darker, moving in the - direction makes them lighter.
Note:
• White balance is adjusted in accordance with
on-screen color temperature, which the camera
detects automatically. Correct adjustment may not
be possible if a strong light source is shining on
the screen.
