assign it to positions 2 to 4, select “ND
FLT CTEMP 2-4”.

As you turn the MENU knob, the color
temperature changes as follows: 3200K y
4300K y 5600K y 6300K.

To switch between electrical CC filters
with an ASSIGN switch
You can assign the function that switches
between electrical CC filters to an ASSIGN
switch. This allows you to switch between color
temperatures (3200K/4300K/5600K/6300K) that
have been assigned to up to four positions (A to
D) with each press of the ASSIGN switch.
Regardless of assignments to ASSIGN switches,
you can also switch between the color
temperatures assigned to each position from a
remote control unit.

1)When the RM-B150/B750, MSU-900/950, or RCP-
750/751/920/921 is connected.
1 Display the WHITE FILTER page of
the MAINTENANCE menu.
For details on menu operations, see “Basic
menu operations” on page 193.
2 Select the position to which to assign a
CC filter by selecting one of
“ELECTRICAL CC<A>” to
“ELECTRICAL CC <D>”, and then
turn the MENU knob to select the
desired color temperature.
As you turn the MENU knob, the color
temperature changes as follows: 3200K y
4300K y 5600K y 6300K.
To set no color temperature
Select “-----” with ELECTRICAL CC<C> or
<D> selected.
When the ASSIGN switch is pressed, the
setting for that position is not displayed. For
example, if “-----” is set for one position, then
switching between the remaining three
positions is carried out.
3 Repeat step 2 as required.
4 Assign the electrical CC filter switching
function (ELECTRICAL CC) to an
ASSIGN 1/3/4 switch, the COLOR
TEMP button, or the RET button on the
lens (see page 209).
White balance memory
Values stored in memory are held until the white
balance is next adjusted.
There are two sets of white balance memories, A
and B, and adjustments for each of the CC filters
(PDW-F800) or ND filters (PDW-700) can be
automatically stored in the memory
corresponding to the setting (A or B) of the
WHITE BAL switch. The camcorder has four
built-in CC filters (PDW-F800) or ND filters
(PDW-700), so a total of eight (4 × 2) adjustments
can be stored. However, the memory contents are
not linked to the CC filter (PDW-F800) or ND
filter (PDW-700) settings in the following cases.
• For the PDW-700, when the number of
memories allocated to each of A and B is
limited to one by setting the FILTER WHT
ND FILTER CTEMP : OFF
ND FLT CTEMP <1>: 3200K
ND FLT CTEMP 2-4: 5600K
ELECTRICAL CC<A>: 3200K
ELECTRICAL CC<B>: 4300K
ELECTRICAL CC<C>: 5600K
ELECTRICAL CC<D>: 6300K
