NOTES
• When you select a custom white balance:
- Do not adjust the zoom to the digital zoom range (light blue area of the zoom bar).
- Reset the white balance when you change locations or the lighting or other conditions change.
- Very rarely and depending on the light source, Å may keep flashing (it will change to a slow
flashing). In that case, change the subject brightness and adjust the custom white balance again.
• If you set an assignable button to [Å Set WB] (A 80), you can press the button to register a
custom white balance after you point the camcorder at a gray card or white object.
• Using a custom white balance may provide better results in the following cases:
- Changing lighting conditions
-Close-ups
- Subjects in a single color (sky, sea or forest)
- Under mercury lamps, certain types of fluorescent lights and LED lights
• If you set an assignable button to [Ä WB Priority] (A 80), you can press the button to switch to a
frequently used white balance setting pre-selected with > [v Camera Setup] > [Set WB
Priority].
