≠ Synchro scan adjustment switches
These switches are used to adjust the synchro scan speed. Pressing the “p” switch reduces
the shutter speed; pressing the “o” switch increases the shutter speed. Set these switches to
a position where the side bar noise in the viewfinder is eliminated during personal computer
monitor shooting, etc.
Æ WHITE BAL (white balance memory selector) switch
PRST: Set to this position when there is no time to adjust the white balance. The white bal-
ance value for 3200K is stored in the memory.
A or B: When the AUTO W/B BAL switch ± is pressed to the AWB side, the white balance
is automatically adjusted in accordance with the setting position of the filter knob ¨,
and the adjustment value is stored in memory A or memory B.
When the FILTER knob and the WHITE BAL switch are set to the same positions as the ones
set when the adjustment was made, the adjustment value stored in the memory is called, and
the unit is automatically adjusted to the white balance which corresponds to this value.
If the setting of this switch is changed when the menu display mode has been set to “3” (de-
fault setting), the new setting will appear for about 3 seconds at the WHITE BAL switch dis-
play position on the viewfinder screen. (Example: “W : A”)
