[. . . ] The relationship Fluorescent lamp 5000K between the color temperature of the light source and weather condition is Halogen lamp 4000K indicated in the right figure. Let's study Tangsten lamp the difference of shooting an indoor 3000K object from shooting one outdoors. Studios are usually lighted with 2000K incandescent lamps and the color temperature of a white object in a studio Candle 1000K is around 3, 200K. The color temperature of a white object outdoors is around Color temperature values 6, 500K. 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. Therefore, there is a need to adjust the white balance in order to correct differences between color temperatures. NOTE Color temperature outdoors may vary depending on weather conditions. 16 How to Adjust _ Black balance adjustment · Adjust it with the lens closed. When the motor drive lens is controlled from the camera, adjusting the black balance causes the lens to be automatically closed. _ Gen lock adjustment When multiple cameras are used or the camera is combined with other equipment, it is necessary to adjust the phase for phase matching by external synchronization. · Horizontal phase adjustment Observe the waveforms of externally synchronizing signal input (black burst signal) and video signal output by a two-phenomenon oscilloscope, and make the horizontal phase according to the camera menu.
