[One-shot WB]
If you set white balance to [Manual], this will force the white balance to match the light source and lock the setting.
Setting Method Example:
Illuminate a white subject (white paper, etc.) using the light source, making sure the subject fills the entire screen, and 
then use [One-shot WB].
Important
• When the subject has only one color, is under low light conditions, or when sodium lamps, mercury lamps or certain other fluorescent 
lighting is used, [Auto] may not adjust colors appropriately.
• If [Auto] is set, and the subject appears greenish under mercury lamps, set white balance to [Light Source] and select [Mercury 
Lamp]. If the colors in the video are still not appropriate under mercury lamps even when you select [Mercury Lamp], use [One-shot 
WB].
Important
Since the light source selection options are based on representative characteristics, appropriate colors may not be achieved depending 
on the applicable light source. If this occurs, use the [One-shot WB] function.
