You can also perform this function remotely using Browser Remote on a connected network device (A 159).
Custom white balance: You can use a gray card or white object with no pattern to establish the white balance
and set it to one of two custom white balance positions, ÅA or ÅB. When recording under fluorescent lights,
we recommend setting the custom white balance.
Preset white balance: Set the white balance to ¼ (daylight) or É (tungsten lamp). You can further adjust the
color temperature (K) value and the color compensation (CC) value, which adjusts the color along the green/
magenta gradation.
Color temperature: Allows you to set the color temperature between 2,000 K and 15,000 K, and further adjust
the color compensation (CC) value.
Auto white balance (AWB): The camera automatically adjusts the white balance to the optimal level.
