Setting the White Balance

The human eye adapts to changes in light so that white objects still appear white even when the light

changes. With cameras, however, the color of the subject is influenced by the color of the light surrounding

it. This color adjustment is called “white balance adjustment”. This setting allows you to set the white

balance when taking images under specific lighting condition.
