White Balance
The color
of
light reflected from
an
object varies
with
the color
of
the light source.
The human brain
is
able
to
adapt
to
changes
in
the color
of
the light source,
with
the result that white objects appear white whether
seen
in
the shade, direct
sunlight, or under incandescent
lightin~l.
Digital cameras can mimic this
adjustment by processing images according
to
the color
of
the light source. This
is
known
as
"white balance."
Although the default setting,
Auto
can
be used under most types
of
lighting, you
can apply the
white
balance setting suited
to
a particular light source
to
achieve
more accurate results.
