In an age where "everything can be fixed in post-production," it’s nice to re-visit a few techniques that save you time and energy by creating the best possible image at the moment the image was taken. Understanding how to use your white balance settings can dramatically improve the quality of your images, particularly when it comes to capturing authentic color.
Frustrated when your waterfall images have a dull, blue tint? Learning to use your white balance settings can change all of that and save you a great deal of time in post-production.
Your white balance setting helps white objects remain a "true white" in the photograph, but this can be a challenge because different light sources cast different hues. Sunlight is often cast in a cooler tone—a blue tint—whereas light from halogen bulbs is often a warmer orange hue. Using your white balance settings properly can ensure that the white objects in your picture remain true when the lighting source is casting a different hue.
Come by Precision Camera & Video and bring your camera with you. We’d be happy to show you how to use your white balance settings as well as show you some of the best accessories designed to capture the image you intended.
