Color Temperature
Color temperature is an objective measure of the color of a
light source, expressed in Kelvin (K). Light sources with a col-
or temperature close to that of direct sunlight appear white;
light sources with a lower color temperature have a yellow
or red cast, while those with a higher color temperature are
6
tinged with blue. You can match color temperature to the
light source, or choose options that diff er sharply from the
color of the light source to make pictures "warmer" or "colder. "
