Shooting with manual adjustment
Adjusting the white balance
White balance adjustment makes white subjects look white and allows more natural color
balance for camera recording. Normally white balance is automatically adjusted. You can
obtain better results by adjusting the white balance manually when lighting conditions
change quickly or when recording outdoors: e.g., neon signs, fireworks.
(1) Set AUTO LOCK selector to the center (auto lock release) position while the
camcorder is in Standby mode.
(2) Press WHT BAL. The white balance indicator appears on the LCD screen or in the
viewfinder.
(3) Turn the control dial to select the appropriate white balance mode under the
following conditions. As you turn the dial, the display changes as follows:
