[. . . ] Recording a fast-moving subject As the focus lens-inside moves mechanically, it cannot keep up with a fast-moving subject. Recording a subject with little contrast A subject with little contrast, such as a white wall, may become blurry because the movie camera achieves focus based upon the vertical lines of an image. Outside of the effective range of automatic white balance adjustment, the image will become reddish or bluish. Even within the effective range of automatic white balance adjustment, the automatic white balance adjustment may not function properly if there is more than one light source. For light outside the functional auto white balance adjustment range, use the manual white balance adjustment mode. [. . . ]
