Adjusting the white
balance
White balance adjustment makes white
subjects look white and allows more natural
colour balance for camera recording.
Normally, white balance is automatically
adjusted. You can obtain better results by
adjusting the white balance manually when
lighting conditions change quickly or when
recording outdoors: e.g., neon signs, fireworks.
(1) Set the AUTO LOCK selector to the center
(auto lock release) position while the
camcorder is in standby, recording, or
memory mode.
(2) Press WHT BAL. The white balance
indicator appears on the LCD screen or in
the viewfinder.
(3) Turn the SEL/PUSH EXEC dial to select the
appropriate white balance mode under the
following conditions. As you turn the dial,
the display changes as follows:
