Color balance adjusting apparatus for color television cameras

摘要

A white balance adjusting apparatus for a color television camera detects the color temperature of an illuminating light of an object for shooting and effects the gain balance adjustment of a chromaticity signal circuit in accordance with the detection output. The white balance adjusting apparatus includes at least one attenuating circuit for suitably attenuating the detection output when desired and thereby suppressing the gain balance adjustment during outdoor shooting as compared to indoor shooting.
