White balance adjustments
Automatic adjustment (AWC)
Two sets of color temperature conditions can be stored in the memory.
When using the unit under the same conditions as the ones stored in the memory, there is no need to re-adjust the white
balance.
When the white balance is automatically adjusted again, the data in the memory is rewritten.
Auto setting indicator LED
White balance selector switch
Red and blue gain adjustment controls
The white object must occupy over
10 % of the monitor screen area.
Auto white/auto black setting switch
1. Set the white balance selector switch to [A] or [B].
2. Fill the screen with a white object.
The white object must have a size which is at least 10% of the screen size, and it must be displayed in the screen center.
Do not allow shiny objects and very bright objects to appear on the screen.
3. The white balance can be automatically adjusted by setting the auto white/auto black setting switch to [AWC].
While the white balance is being automatically adjusted, the auto setting indicator LED starts blinking: it goes off if the
adjustment is successful and lights up if it is not successful.
If the adjustment is not successful, change the lens iris setting, lighting, subject and/or other conditions, and try performing
the automatic adjustment again.
4. After automatically adjusting the white balance, use the red and blue gain adjustment controls to finely adjust the
white balance.
Note:
When the white balance is automatically adjusted again after it has been finely adjusted, it will return to the status prior to the
fine adjustment regardless of the positions of the red and blue gain adjustment controls.
Automatic color temperature search (ATW)
When the white balance selector switch is set to [ATW], the camera provides compensation automatically in such a way
that the white balance is adjusted automatically even when the light source or color temperature has changed. The result is
images in which nothing feels odd or out of place.
Notes:
The white balance may shift if there are no white objects on the screen.
With some light sources or at some color temperatures, it may not be possible to compensate the white balance
completely.
