Manual White Balance Adjustment (M.W.B.)
This camcorder's Automatic Colour Temperature system senses
the colour temperature of the ambient lighting for automatic
white balance adjustment. However, precise colour adjust-
ment is not possible under the following conditions:
• When an object is in various shades of the same colour.
• 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.

unaffected by surroundings, even when there are multiple
