The white balance refers to the correctness of

accurately reproduced.
The white balance is usually adjusted
automatically. However, more advanced
camcorder operators control this function
manually to achieve a more professional color/
tint reproduction.
To change the setting
Set "W. BALANCE" to the desired mode.
