curious: if you dont know what white balance is, how do you know you need help on some?
lolI bought a house built in the 80s, so my tub & bathroom ARE precariously yellowish.
I find changing white balance really helpful but often get the wrong setting under fluroescent light indoors - one setting will work in one place then move a few metres away and its totally wrong. I've tried setting the white balance by getting my camera to read it from a white piece of paper but find that often this can result in the worst white balance in a photo. Any tips guidance gratefully received as it frustrates the hell out of me.
Uh, no! Color temperature doesn't have anything to do with ambient temperature. If that were true then the sun would be blue all the time since it's surrounded by super-cold space. Or it would be blue on cold days and red on hot days, which it obviously isn't. It is the frequency of the light and how our eyes perceive that frequency.White balance is directly related to the temperature. When temperature is cool i.e. if the atmosphere around u gives a cool effect then adjust your camera to warmer tone and if its warmer in nature … then u can cool it down with the help of WHITE BALANCE…

There are many different white balance control options available (depends what your camera is providing u). U can use the option auto white balance but I would suggest u to manually set that as it’s a camera n can’t match to human eye perfection ….
