Explanation of terms
Automatic white balance
White balance adjustment recognises the colour of
light and adjusts so the white colour will become a
purer white. The unit determines the hue of light that
comes through the lens, thereby judging the recording
condition, and selects the closest hue setting.
This is called automatic white balance adjustment.
However, since the unit only stores white colour
information under several light sources,
automatic white balance adjustment does not
function normally under other light sources.
The illustration above shows the range over
which the auto white balance functions.
1) The effective range of automatic white
balance adjustment on this unit
2) Blue sky
3) Cloudy sky (rain)
4) TV screen
5) Sunlight
6) White fluorescent lamp
7) Halogen light bulb
8) Incandescent light bulb
9) Sunrise or sunset
10) Candlelight
Outside of the effective range of automatic white
balance adjustment, the image will become
reddish or bluish. Even within the effective range
of automatic white balance adjustment, the
automatic white balance adjustment may not
function properly if there is more than one light
source. For light outside the functional automatic
white balance adjustment range, use the manual
white balance adjustment mode.
White balance adjustment
White balance adjustment determines the white
colour under different light sources. By recognising
which is the white colour under sunlight and which
is the white colour under a fluorescent light, the unit
can adjust the balance among the other colours.
Since the white colour is the reference for all the
colours, the unit can record pictures in a natural
hue if it can recognise the reference colour white.
Auto focus
The lens is moved forward or backward
automatically to bring the subject into focus.
Auto focus has the following characteristics.
≥ Adjusts so that the vertical lines of a
subject are seen more clearly.
≥ Attempts to bring an object with higher
contrast into focus.
≥ Focuses on the screen centre only.
Due to these characteristics, auto focus does not
work correctly in the following situations. Record
pictures in the manual focus mode.
Recording distant and close-up objects at the
same time
Since the unit focuses on whatever is at the
centre of the screen, it is difficult to bring the
background into focus when close-up objects are
placed in focus. When recording people with
distant mountains in the background, you cannot
focus on both the subject which is close-up and
the objects which are in the distance.
Recording a subject behind dirty or dusty
window
The subject behind the window will not be focused
because the focus is on the dirty window.
Similarly, when recording something on the
opposite side of a road with heavy traffic, a vehicle
that happens to pass by may be brought into focus.
Recording a subject that is surrounded by
objects with glossy surfaces or by highly
reflective objects
Since whatever is shiny or glistens is brought into
focus, it is hard to focus on the subject to be
recorded. The focus may become blurry when
recording subjects at the seashore, in night views
or in scenes involving fireworks or special lights.
Recording a subject in dark surroundings
The unit cannot focus correctly because the light
information that comes through the lens
decreases considerably.
Recording a fast-moving subject
As the focus lens-inside moves mechanically, it
cannot keep up with a fast-moving subject.
When, for example, recording a sports event with
fast moving subjects, the focus may lose its
sharpness.
Recording a subject with little contrast
It is easy to bring subjects with a sharp contrast
or vertical lines or stripes into focus. This means
that a subject with little contrast, such as a white
wall, may become blurry because the unit
achieves focus based upon the vertical lines of
an image.
