Notes on the ∑ indicator in the viewfinder
•The indicator means:
Slow flashing: white balance is not adjusted.
Fast flashing: white balance is being adjusted (after you pressed WHITE BALANCE
∑).
Lit steady: white balance has been adjusted.
•If the ∑ indicator keeps flashing even when you press WHITE BALANCE ∑, shoot
in automatic white balance mode. Set AUTO LOCK to ON and slide ATW/MANUAL
under the WHT BAL dial to ATW.
Notes on white balance
•When you shoot with studio lighting or video lighting, use e (3200K) (indoor) mode.
•When you shoot under fluorescent lighting, use automatic white balance mode.
Shooting when the lighting condition changes
•After the lighting condition changes, readjust the white balance using the WHITE
BALANCE ∑ button while the digital camcorder is in Standby mode. The WHITE
BALANCE ∑ button does not function during recording.
•If you are adjusting the aperture (iris) and shutter speed manually, then when you
move from indoors to outdoors or vice-versa, set AUTO LOCK to ON and then set it
to OFF again.
•After you move from indoors to outdoors or vice-versa, or detach the battery to
replace it, while shooting in automatic white balance mode, point the digital
camcorder at a white subject for about 10 seconds before you start recording.
