Auto white/auto black setting switch
[AWC/HOLD/ABC]
Automatic adjustment of the white balance starts when
this switch is set to the top position while the white
balance selector switch
is at the [A] or [B] position.
Regardless of the white balance selector switch
setting, when the switch is set to the bottom position, the
lens iris closes and the automatic adjustment of the black
balance starts.
The switch’s mechanism is designed to return the switch
to the [HOLD] setting when the switch is released, but the
automatic adjustment continues until it is completed.
Caution
The black balance cannot be adjusted properly unless
the lens iris is completely closed.
Automatic adjustment of the white balance and black
balance is not performed when [BAR] has been selected
as the color bar/camera selector switch
or when the
camera’s menu is displayed due to the setting of the
menu ON/OFF switch
.
Auto setting indicator LED [AUTO]
This LED starts blinking when the automatic adjustment
of the white balance or black balance is started by the
auto white/auto black setting switch
; it stops blinking
and goes off when the adjustment ends successfully.
If this LED is lighted, it means that the adjustment has not
ended successfully.
If the white balance has not ended successfully, change
the lens iris setting, lighting, subject or other aspects, and
try performing the automatic adjustment again.
If the black balance has not ended successfully, close
the lens iris completely, and try performing the automatic
adjustment again.
White balance selector switch
[AWC/ATW ATW/A/B]
This switch is used to select the auto white balance
setting.
ATW: At this setting, the camera provides
compensation 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:
• This function may not operate properly
if a source of high brightness (such as a
fluorescent light) is shown on the screen.
• The white balance may shift if there are no
white objects on the screen.
A or B: When the white balance is being automatically
adjusted by the auto white/auto black setting
switch
, the color temperature conditions can
be stored in memory [A] or [B].
Red and blue gain adjustment controls
[PAINTING GAIN R/B]
These controls enable the white balance to be adjusted
finely when the white balance selector switch
is at the
[A] or [B] setting.
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
these controls.
The function of the controls may be implemented in steps
since the processing involved uses digital signals: This is
normal and does not indicate any malfunctioning.
