White Balance - Canon Rebel T2i Quick Start Manual

White Balance

• Light has a color temperature that varies depending on the time of
day and the type of light
• Our eyes adjust naturally but a camera must be told how to adjust
• It is important to have an accurate white balance before you begin
recording. Adjusting video color can be difficult to correct with
software. Judge white balance by looking at white objects (obviously)
but also by looking at skin tones.
• Usually the Auto White Balance feature is correct.
• In the following examples I am adjusting white balance through the
Quick Menu.
