White Balance
Using the White Balance function, you can select a setting that
matches the light illuminating the subject you are shooting (Daylight,
Fluorescent, etc.) or let the camcorder make all adjustments
automatically. Based on your selection, the camcorder automatically
adjusts the color of the subject so the colors in your recording look
natural.

Understanding White Balance
The White Balance (WB) process removes unrealistic color casts
so that white objects are rendered white in your image and all other
colors look natural. Proper white balance has to take into account
the ‘color temperature’ of a light source, which refers to the relative
warmth or coolness of white light.
