AWB A and AWB B, the value set through the
menu options is used, and this function does not
work. Menu options can be found in the <WHITE
BALANCE MODE> screen on the CAM
OPERATION page.

To automatically correct black shading, the AUTO
W/B BAL switch must be pressed toward [ABB] for

To stop automatic adjustment of the white or black balance
in progress, set the switch to either ([AWB] or [ABB]).
If automatic adjustment is canceled, the value in effect
before automatic adjustment will be used.
