Automatic white balance
White balance adjustment recognizes the color 
of light and adjusts so the white color will 
become a purer white. The unit determines the 
hue of light that comes through the lens and 
white balance sensor, thereby judging the 
recording condition, and selects the closest hue 
setting.
This is called automatic white balance 
adjustment.
However, since the unit only stores white color 
information under certain light sources, 
automatic white balance adjustment does not 
function normally under other light sources.
The illustration above shows the range over 
which the auto white balance functions.
1) The effective range of automatic white 
balance adjustment on this unit
2) Blue sky
3) Cloudy sky (rain)
4) TV screen
5) Sunlight
6) White fluorescent lamp
7) Halogen light bulb
8) Incandescent light bulb
9) Sunrise or sunset
10) Candlelight
Outside of the effective range of automatic white 
balance adjustment, the image will become 
reddish or bluish. Even within the effective range 
of automatic white balance adjustment, the 
automatic white balance adjustment may not 
function properly if there is more than one light 
source. For light outside the functional automatic 
white balance adjustment range, use the manual 
white balance adjustment mode.
White balance adjustment
White balance adjustment determines the white 
color under different light sources. By 
recognizing which is the white color under 
sunlight and which is the white color under a 
fluorescent light, the unit can adjust the balance 
among the other colors.
Since the white color is the reference for all the 
colors, the unit can record pictures in a natural 
hue if it can recognize the reference color white.
Auto focus
The lens is moved forward or backward 
automatically to bring the subject into focus.
Auto focus has the following characteristics.
≥ Adjusts so that the vertical lines of a subject 
are seen more clearly.
≥ Attempts to bring an object with higher contrast 
into focus.
≥ Focuses on the screen center only.
Due to these characteristics, auto focus does not 
work correctly in the following situations. Record 
pictures in the manual focus mode.
Recording distant and close-up objects at the 
same time
Since the unit focuses on whatever is at the 
center of the screen, it is difficult to bring the 
background into focus when close-up objects are 
placed in focus. When recording people with 
distant mountains in the background, you cannot 
focus on both the subject which is close-up and 
the objects which are in the distance.
