About White Balance
To
the human eye, a white object looks white regardless of the type of lighting.
With a digital camera, the color temperature
is
adjusted with software
to
make
the white areas look white. This adjustment serves
as
the basis for the color
correction. The result
is
natural-looking colors
in
the pictures.
