6. SETTING AND ADJUSTMENTS BEFORE SHOOTING
6-6 White Balance Adjustment
Since the colour of light (colour temperature) varies depending on the light source, it is necessary to re-adjust the white balance when the main light source illuminating the subject changes.
Note:
When a subject illuminated by a halogen lamp with a colour temperature of 3, 200K is shot while the colour temperature conversion filter setting is set to 5, 600K, 5, 600K+1/8 ND, or 5, 600K+1/64 ND, a proper white balance adjustment and (FAW) Full Time Auto White balance may not be accomplishable. In this case, change the colour temperature conversion filter setting to 3, 200K and then carry out the white balance adjustment and (FAW) again. Do not adjust using any highly reflective objects, such as metal, etc. , as this may result in improper white balance adjustment.
