Setting the White Balance
You can choose one of the preset settings to reproduce colors more accurately, or set a
custom white balance to obtain the setting best suited to your specific recording
conditions.
To change the operating mode, refer to About the Operating Modes (11).
Mode switch:
Options
* To set the custom white balance when you select [ SET]:
1. Point the camcorder at a white object, zoom in until it fills the whole
screen and press ( ).
Keep the camcorder zoomed at the white object until stops flashing.
2. Press to save the setting and close the menu.
Depending on the type of fluorescent light, optimal color balance may not be
obtained with [ FLUORESCENT] or [ FLUORESCENT H]. If the color looks
unnatural, adjust it using [ AUTO] or [ SET].
When you have set the custom white balance:
- Depending on the light source, may keep flashing. The result will still be
better than with [ AUTO].
- Reset the white balance when the lighting condition changes.
- Turn off the digital zoom.
The camcorder retains the custom white balance setting even if you turn it off.
