To set no color temperature
Select “-----” with
Electrical

selected.
When the assignable switch is pressed, the
setting for that position is not displayed. For
example, if “-----” is set for one position, then
switching between the remaining three
positions is carried out.

Repeat step

as required.

Assign the electrical CC filter switching
function (ELECTRICAL CC) to an
assignable switch
.
White balance memory
Values stored in memory are held until the white
balance is next adjusted even when the camcorder
power is turned off.
The camcorder has two white balance memories,
A and B. You can automatically save adjustment
values for each ND filter in the memory that
corresponds to the WHITE BAL switch setting
(A or B). The camcorder has four built-in ND
filters, allowing you to save a total of eight
adjustment values (4 × 2). However, the contents
of the memories are not linked to ND filter
settings in the following cases.
• When the number of memories allocated to
each of A and B is limited to one by setting
OPERATION >White Setting >Filter White
Memory in the setup menu to Off.
• When the electrical CC filter switching function
has been assigned to an assignable switch, or
when a remote control unit has been connected.
(In these cases, the contents of white balance
memory are linked to electrical CC filter
positions (A to D).)
Also, when OPERATION >White Setting
>White Switch<B> in the setup menu is set to
[ATW (Auto Tracing White Balance)], and the
WHITE BAL switch is set to B, the ATW
function is activated to automatically adjust the
white balance of the picture being shot for
varying lighting conditions.
The shutter modes that can be used with the
electronic shutter and the shutter speeds that can
be selected are listed below.
Standard mode
Select this mode for shooting fast-moving
subjects with little blurring.
You can set the shutter speed in one of two shutter
modes: Speed mode, in which the speed is set in
seconds, and Angle mode, in which the speed is
set in degrees.
Speed mode
a) This speed cannot be selected when the camcorder is
in Slow & Quick Motion mode and OPERATION
>Rec Function >Frame Rate in the setup menu is set
to a value that is greater than the system frequency.
Angle mode
180°, 90°, 45°, 22.5°, and 11.25°
ECS (Extended Clear Scan) mode
Select this mode for obtaining images with no
horizontal bands of noise when shooting subjects
such as monitor screens.
