When I use my DVX100 inside the house,
It always chage the color frequently,
blue and green and blue...all the time!
how could I stop it!:(
because I have to swich on the Auto,
can I solve this problem in Auto Mode?!?

Thanks!
 
not old one~:$ but it's fluorescent light^_^
could it be solved?!>"<
because every where is fluorescent lighting~
 
That can definitely play havoc. It's best to avoid auto mode if you can (and even then you can have problems with fluorescents).
 
well...I make a test after I post...
even if I close it,it's still the same~@_@
Do I have to adjust other thing ?what shoud I be careful of?!?!

Thanks again!!!
 
Have you tried turning off the Auto Tracking White balance (ATW) feature (there's a menu setting to turn that off) and doing a manual white balance?
 
yes~~~Q_Q
I tried after you said....but...>"<
I closed all the AUTOs (in the Menu,left side buttom AUTO)
and swich WB- PRST , A ,B ,
and all of them did the AWB(the buttom below the LEICA LENS)
Did I lost anything?!?!
 
You could try to crank up the chroma phase setting (toward magenta) and see if that helps minimize it, but I don't know how effective that will be on something that is constantly shifting.
 
Just sounds like you need to manually set the white balance by pointing the camera at something white thats under the same light temperature as your scene and pressing the ATW button by the lens.

Also, make sure the color temp and phase settings in the scene file are set to 0.

Manual, auto, preset WB, will not solve the problem.
A couple of advises tough:
Keep the shutter speed at 1/60(1/50)
If the WB changes slowly (>1min/cycle) use AWB
Don't uses combined (fluo+incandescent) lighting
Avoid "warm" fluo's. Use the "cold" ones.
Change to electronic balasts.
