White balance
– Basic auto mode allows the camera to continually
adjust for optimal color reproduction using an average
reflectance method. This is useful for indoor light
sources and for colored LED light illumination.
– Standard auto mode allows the camera to continually
adjust for optimal color reproduction in an
environment with natural light sources.
– Sodium lamp auto mode allows the camera to
continually adjust for optimal color reproduction in an
environment with sodium vapor light sources (street
lighting).
– Dominant color auto mode takes into account any
dominant color in the image (for example, the green of
a football pitch or of a gaming table) and uses this
information to obtain a well balanced color
reproduction.
– In Manual mode the Red, Green, and Blue gain can be
manually set to a desired position.
