Notes
Set [White Balance] to [Auto] or adjust the 
color in [One Push] under white or cool white 
fluorescent lamps.
When you select [One Push], keep framing 
white objects.
While the camcorder is recording a movie, 
 
is grayed out and [One Push] cannot be set.
Tips
If you have changed the battery pack while 
[Auto] was selected, or taken your camcorder 
outdoors after inside use (or vice versa), aim 
your camcorder at a nearby white object for 
about 10 seconds for better color balance 
adjustment.
When the white balance has been set with [One 
Push], if the lighting conditions changed by 
bringing your camcorder outdoors from inside 
the house, or vice versa, you need to redo the 
[One Push] procedure to readjust the white 
balance.
You can adjust the white balance B-A (blue to 
amber), or G-M (green to magenta) by touching 
[OPTION].
When [WB Color Temp.], [WB B-A] or [WB 
G-M] is assigned to the MANUAL button 
(p. 49), the value can be adjusted by pressing the 
MANUAL button and rotating the MANUAL 
dial (p. 47). If the MANUAL button is pressed 
again, [Auto] is set in the case of [WB Color 
Temp.], and the setting becomes ineffective in 
the case of [WB B-A] or [WB G-M].
