video camera/
recorder at a white
object so that it fills

the object, referring to “Manually Focusing
Subject” (see page 53).

changes from blinking to a steady light. When

• The white balance set using the “Set” option will be
stored in memory until it is re-set.
• Do not use a colored object when setting the white
balance: The appropriate tint cannot be set.
• If “Input Source: LINE, S-LINE” has been specified,
you cannot use the “Set” mode of white balance
(p. 64).
• The setting on white balance “Set” may not be
possible in a dark place. Also, the white balance
cannot be set when the zoom bar is in the digital
zoom range (p. 51). In such status, the “h” indicator
will remain blinking. Set the white balance in a bright
place with “Dig. Zoom Off” specified.
• If the recording conditions have changed, re-set the
white balance for appropriate colors.
• The setting will be stored in memory even when the
DVD video camera/recorder is turned off: The “h”
indicator will blink when the DVD video camera/
recorder is turned on next time. Re-set the white
balance as needed.
