White Balance [WB]
The WhiteBalance node
White Balance Node Introduction
The White Balance node can be used to automatically remove color casts in the image caused
by the incorrect setup of a camera or bad lighting conditions.
Correction can be done by selecting a color temperature or by choosing a neutral color from
the original image that exhibits the color cast to be corrected.
IMPORTANT
When picking neutral colors using the Custom method, make sure you are picking from
the source image, not the results of the White Balance node. This ensures that the
image doesn’t change while you are still picking, and that the White Balance node gets
an accurate idea of the original colors it needs to correct.
