For Your Information
Notes On Operations
Approximate Brightness Values
This Palmcorder stores settings that are optimal for several kinds of general light
sources. The Palmcorder determines the hue of light that it receives through the lens and
White Balance Sensor, thereby judging the recording condition, and selects the closest
hue setting. This function is called Auto White Balance Adjustment.
However, since white balance settings for only certain kinds of light sources are stored,
the Auto White Balance function does not operate properly when recording occurs under
light that is out of the range of the setting values.
Use of Auto White Balance Adjustment in inappropriate lighting conditions may result in
reddish or bluish images. Where the subject is surrounded by many light-sources, Auto
White Balance Adjustment may not operate properly. In such a case, we suggest that
you adjust the White Balance.
• Do not cover the White Balance Sensor with your hand during recording.
Otherwise, White Balance will not work normally.
