Color temperature and adjustment of white balance When carbon is burnt, it develops various colors of light depending on the temperature. Natural light can be specified by color temperature referring to the color developed when carbon is burnt. The light of 3 200K (K=Kelvin, −273C equals to absolute zero temperature 0K) represents the same value (color) as what develops when carbon is burnt at 3 200K (2 927C). The relationship between the color temperature of the light source and weather condition is indicated in the right figure. Let’s study the difference of shooting an indoor object from shooting one outdoors. Studios are usually lighted with incandescent lamps and the color temperature of a white object in a studio is around 3 000K. The color temperature of a white object outdoors is around 6 500 K. The former may look a little yellowish while the latter appears somewhat bluish when they are shot by a camera. However, the human eye does not recognize color differences among these objects even under different ambient lighting conditions, because of their adaptability to light. The video camera reproduces color differences with high fidelity and the color of an object somewhat different from what appears to the human eye. NOTE: Color temperature outdoors may vary depending on weather conditions. Blue sky Rainy AWC Cloudy Partly cloudy ATW Fine Fluorescent lamp Halogen lamp Tungsten lamp Candle -20- ■ AUTOMATIC WHITE BALANCE CONTROL (AWC) ITEM/AWC Switch There are two white balance memories, “AWC A” or “AWC B” for two different light sources color temperatures, with the automatic white balance setting. Then, when the two different light sources are encountered, you may operate the camera properly by simply change the white balance mode to either AWC A or AWC B. There is no need to readjust the camera to the ambient conditions. * The preset conditions will be renewed whenever you input new conditions. 1. Turn the white balance selection switch to either “AWC A” or “AWC B” of RCU or select the white balance mode either AWC A or AWC B by menu. 2. Aim the camera at a white object (a white wall or a white handkerchief) and zoom in to enlarge the image as much as possible.

The object must appear in over 10 % of the total monitor screen area. Try to avoid overly bright objects in the scene. • White balance may not be correctly set if the lighting of the object is too weak. White balance will be automatically set to continuously match changes of light source and color temperature while the white balance setting is set to ATW. Note: White balance may not be accurately set if there is no white object in the scene being shot. ,,,,, ,,,,, ,,,,, ,,,,, ■ MANUAL WHITE BALANCE SETTING The white object must occupy over 10 % of the monitor screen area. • Since the camera has a built-in memory, the set white balance will remain in the memory even if power is turned off. Therefore, it is not necessary to reset the white balance if the color temperature of those objects remains unchanged. However, it must be reset if the color temperature changes, such as when you move from indoors to outside, or vice versa. • When the camera is used without a RCU or RCB red/blue gain adjustment of painting setting will be automatically reset to ±0 after setting the white balance. (painting setting in only USER MODE.) [ADJUSTMENT by CAMERA] Manual setting is possible in USER MODE only. 1. Select the white balance mode either AWC A or AWC B by menu. 2. Aim the camera at a large white object. Press the Item/AWC switch for over 2 second. 3. Adjust the red gain/blue gain control in the PAINTING item of Color Set sub menu of USER MODE until the carrier wave of the white portion of the video signal is at the minimum width or the white object in the monitor screen appears pure white. (Use an oscilloscope or a waveform monitor for precise adjustment.) [ADJUSTMENT with the RCU (RCB)] After AWC setting, adjust the R/B GAIN controller in the same way as described in Step 3 above. -22- Minimize the carrier wave using the red & blue gain controls In user mode, black balance fine adjustment can be performed with the red pedestal/blue pedestal setting after setting the black balance. [ADJUSTMENT with the RCU (RCB, Hybrid control panel)] Set the AUTO set switch to ABC and the black balance will be automatically set. While the system is being set, the auto warning indicator (LED) blinks and it goes out when the black balance setting is completed. If the lamp remains lit, ABC should be tried again.
