White balance and black balance adjustment

Better pictures will be produced by performing the white balance

and black balance adjustments in the sequence of AWB (white

balance adjustment) > ABB (black balance adjustment) > AWB.

Normally, there is no need to re-adjust the black balance even when

the power is turned on again.

<Notes>

Even though the brightness under artificial lighting and especially

under fluorescent lights and mercury lamps may appear to be

constant, the strengths of the red, green and blue colours change in

synchronization with the power line frequency. Particularly in areas

where this frequency is 60 Hz, the unit's vertical sync frequency

(50 Hz) and the lighting frequency (60 Hz) will be subject to mutual

interference, causing the colour phase to change as time passes

and flicker to be generated. This makes it impossible to attain the

white balance properly. It is recommended that the white balance

be attained using the settings shown in the table below.

1 Set the WHITE BAL switch to A or B.

2 Set the OUTPUT/AUTO KNEE switch to CAM.

3 Normally, set the GAIN selector switch to 0 dB.

If it is too dark at this setting, set the gain to a more

appropriate level.

4 Set the CC/ND filter selector knob to the position

corresponding to the lighting conditions.

Something white (a piece of white fabric or a white wall) near

the subject can be used instead. The required size of the

If there is no time to adjust the white balance, set the WHITE BAL

switch to PRST. The white balance will be attained for the filter

according to the FILTER control (outer) setting position.

The automatic tracking white balance operation is performed when

ATW has been set ahead of time for the A, B and PRE positions of

the WHITE BAL switch: this comes in handy at such a time.
