Refer to the Operating Instructions of the controller.



 White balance may not be correctly set if the lighting 

of the object is too weak.



 Since the unit has a built-in memory, the set white 

balance will remain in the memory even if power is 
turned off. Therefore, it is not necessary to reset the 
white balance if the color temperature of those objects 
remains unchanged. However, it must be reset if the 
color temperature changes, such as when you move 
from indoors to outside, or vice versa.



  Auto tracking white adjustment (ATW)

When the white balance adjustment is set to “ATW”, the 
white balance continues to be adjusted automatically all 
the time, and it is automatically corrected even when the 
light source or color temperature has changed to produce 
completely natural pictures.

This function works when “ATW” is selected instead of 
“AWB A” or “AWB B” by following the steps for “Automatic 
adjustment” in “White balance adjustment” (page 22).



 ATW might not function properly when high brightness 

light (ex. fluorescent lamp) beams into a screen.



 White balance may not be accurately set if there is no 

white object in the scene being shot.



 The white balance may shift out of adjustment when 

a different kind of light source such as sunlight or 
fluorescent lighting applies.



  3200K and 5600K presets

When “3200K” or “5600K” is selected for the white balance, 
the white balance is set using a color temperature of 
3200K (equivalent to halogen light) or 5600K (equivalent to 
daylight), respectively.
This function works when “3200K” or “5600K” is selected 
instead of “AWB A” or “AWB B” by following the steps for 
“Automatic adjustment” in “White balance adjustment” 
(page 22).
(From the controller, this operation can be performed 
only using the menu displays. Refer to “Basic operations” 
(page 29).)
