ql WHITE BAL (white balance memory) switch
This switch determines the source of the white balance settings.
PRST (preset): Adjusts the color temperature corresponding to the
position of the FILTER selector (outer knob). Use the PRST setting
when you have no time to adjust the white balance.
A or B: When the AUTO W/B BAL switch is pushed to WHT, the white
balance is automatically adjusted according to the current position of
the FILTER selector (outer knob), and the adjusted value is stored in
either memory A or memory B. (There are two memories for each
CC filter, so a total of eight adjustments can be stored.) When the
FILTER selector (outer knob) is at the same position as it was when
this WHITE BAL switch was adjusted, the stored value is called from
memory, and the camcorder automatically adjusts itself to that value.
You can use the AUTO W/B BAL switch even when the ATW
use.
B (ATW): When this switch is set to B whereas, on the FUNCTION 2
page of the OPERATION menu, WHITE B CH is set to ATW
ATW is activated.
When this switch is adjusted, the new setting will be indicated on the
setting change/adjustment progress message display area of the
viewfinder screen for about 3 seconds.
You can assign the ATW ON/OFF function to the ASSIGN 1 switch
(push-type) on the FUNCTION 1 page of the USER menu.
For details, see "4-8-5 Assigning Functions to ASSIGN 1/2 Switches" on page 4-
107.
