("BASIC CONNECTIONS"
When adjusted by putting colored paper in front of the subject in step 2 , this unit makes its color
temperature standard for automatic white balance. So you can enjoy shooting with different colors. For
example, when adjusting with red, blue or yellow colors, the image becomes the color which aproximates
to green, orange or purple respectively.
White Balance Adjustment
This camcorder's Automatic Color Temperature system
senses the color temperature of the ambient lighting for
automatic white balance adjustment. However, precise
color adjustment is not possible under the following
conditions:
•When an object is in various shades of the same color.
•When a predominantly red or brown object is being
shot outdoors.
In these cases, use the camcorder's built-in preset filters
for white balance adjustment.
