Late masters teach you how to use good photos to correct white balance

Novice photographers always find themselves photographed either blue or yellow. This problem and the early filming when the white balance is not properly related to the setting, many people do not realize that the adjustment of white balance to restore the importance of real light color.

For digital cameras, the white balance is the problem of color temperature, so the correction of white balance is to set the correct color temperature value of the camera. If the color temperature of the camera is higher than the ambient temperature, the picture will be yellow, if the temperature value of the camera is lower than the ambient temperature, then the blue. Only the color temperature value of the camera is consistent with the ambient color temperature, so the scene colors can be restored correctly.

For example: Noon in the sun exposure, at this time the ambient temperature of about 5200K, and your camera color temperature set to 6000K, the photos will be yellow; If you want to take out the cold effect of the blue, you should reduce the temperature value of the camera to 5200K below.

How can you know where you are now in the environment temperature? This requires you to write down some of the common environment color temperature values.

Adjust the white balance so that the color of the photo more natural way There are many, in addition to filming the preparation work can be correctly restored color, many photographic post-production software can also help you to correct the white balance. Xiao Bian now teaches you how to correct the white balance with good illumination.

　 Look at the contrast chart.

Before adjusting, because the temperature of the camera is lower than the ambient temperature, the film overall is blue.

Adjusted to show the richness of the clouds at sunrise.

Good photo is a simple and useful image processing tools, currently in addition to the Windows version, and Apple Mac version, as well as mobile client Android version and iOS version, very suitable for novice photography enthusiasts and like to pat the guests.

The first step: looking for white balance correction point. Usually, we choose the scene closest to the white point for correction, so that the white part of the scene to restore the real white, the other color is normal. But in order to show the richness of the sunrise cloud, we chose the brightest point in the sky as the white balance correction point to try to restore the color of the clouds.

After choosing a good point, use the eyedropper tool in the color adjustment, move to the point you choose, click Down to change the white balance. In addition, you can also try the automatic White balance button next to the straw, it is also very convenient.

Step two: Observe and adjust. The color temperature value becomes 100, the hue turns to 55, the picture already is original true color. However, the figure is still very dark, after observing the histogram information, the discovery is due to the lack of information on the bright part of the picture.

Step three: Correct the information on the bright part. To remove the opacity, we need to correct the light information, with the color adjustment in the white dots and highlights, white dots to 69, the highlight value to 76.

Fourth step: Rich color. Now that this picture, although the white balance and color levels are adjusted back, but the color is not bright enough, so with the basic adjustment in the saturation adjustment, the value to 30.

Use good photos to easily make up for the early white balance set error problem. Sometimes, not that you shoot not good enough, but some details do not notice, the current period has become a foregone conclusion, later became our only and necessary means.
