Memory: Auto white balance
ATW: Auto tracing white balance
Selects the transition time when the WHITE
BAL switch setting is changed (1 is fastest).
Selects the ATW (auto tracing white) transition
speed (1 is fastest).
Runs AWB (auto white balance) for the center of
the screen.
Sets the white balance memory area for each
FILTER knob position number when White

• When Electrical CC is assigned to an

number.
Selects whether to add (On) or not to add (Off)
an offset value to the white balance in memory
A.
When Offset White <A> is set to On, this
specifies the offset (as a color temperature) to
add to the white balance in memory A. (Note that
the error increases for higher offset color
temperatures. Adjust while viewing the actual
image.)
Specifies a more precise color temperature, for
use when a satisfactory image cannot be obtained
with the Warm Cool <A> setting.
When this is set to On, the offset adjusted here is
added to the white balance of channel B.
When Offset White <B> is set to On, this
specifies the offset (as a color temperature) to
add to the white balance in memory A. (Note that
the error increases for higher offset color
temperatures. Adjust while viewing the actual
image.)
Specifies a more precise color temperature, for
use when a satisfactory image cannot be obtained
with the Warm Cool <B> setting.
