AWC --> SET: Allows you to create a custom white balance. You’ll need a sheet of
thick white card/paper. Hold the paper in front of the camera so that it covers just
over half the viewing area. If you are using a camera with a vari-focal lens (such as
the PRO-680/681) adjust the focus so that the piece of paper’s edge is sharp and
clear. Then, press SELECT. The camera will use the white card/paper to ascertain
the color of the light, and will adjust itself accordingly.
Manual: Click SELECT to open the Manual White Balance control menu. Here,
you’ll be able to have full control of how the camera determines color. For a
rundown of the Manual White Balance Control menu, see page 19.
Backlight: Controls what part of your images the camera will try and properly
represent, and how it responds to really bright lights.
OFF: The default setting. The camera will try and expose the whole scene evenly.
This may cause some areas to black out (under-expose) or white out (over-expose).
BLC (Backlight Compensation): The camera will try to expose things in the
foreground properly, even if this means that the background will over-expose/
white out. Press SELECT to open the BLC Menu, where you can fine-tune how the
camera responds to backlighting.
HLC (Highlight Compensation): Places a black mask over extreme highlights in your
images. It can be useful to block out, for example, a bright window during the day
or car headlights at night. Press SELECT to open the HLC menu to control how and
when highlight masking will occur.
Reset: Possibly the most important menu item of them all! If you find that the
camera is behaving strangely, then chances are something has been set amiss.
