In this week’s episode, we discuss a pro white balance tip that's guaranteed to solve beginner's greatest challenge. I'm always open with my struggles related to photography and have mentioned this on more than one occasion that White Balance is by far the most difficult aspect of photo editing for me. But, after years of trial and error, I've finally landed on a process that works great for me and I now feel more confident than ever when it comes to selecting an appropriate White Balance. And, in this video, I'll review the multiple ways to correct White Balance using Lightroom and will show you the process that changed it all for me! I hope you enjoy this week's video and as always thanks so much for watching! - Mark D.

💥QUESTION: Which White Balance setting do you use in camera?

@jhmnieuwenhuis Жыл бұрын

Auto

@scottmiller9621 Жыл бұрын

Custom white balance using gray card.

@mariusvaiciulis5072 Жыл бұрын

it's auto. i just see no reason to mess around that setting. maybe with jpeg out of camera, that would be a completely different story.

@DaveBerthiaume Жыл бұрын

Always use auto and worry about it in post. One less thing to have to think about in the field.

@scothowe539 Жыл бұрын

I’ve always used auto then use temp slider to adjust to my liking. I also have a little point and shoot that I had converted to infrared. Totally different story for that. I use a custom white balance taken from green grass.

When using the color picker, any time you get the same three numbers for the three channels it's a good spot to choose.

@lesath7883 4 ай бұрын

But if you pick a spot with all 3 channels con the same level, then you are picking the same color balance that you have in the picture.

@drmathochist06 Жыл бұрын

The sails make a good example of not using a known-white because you DO want a color cast, in this case yellowish. In forest shots, I find that I often want some greenish cast because that's how it feels. Even using an 18% grey card would get it "wrong". My solution is usually to use the known-white with the picker, and then manually bump the yellow-blue and magenta-green sliders to get the cast that feels right from that point.

@basilbcf Жыл бұрын

Something I sometimes do in scenes that have large areas that are very different is to use masking (like linear gradient) and apply white balance to specific areas rather than applying one white balance to the entire scene. Don't do this al the time, but in some situations I find it can really add some punch to an image.

@ravenfallsphotography6254 Жыл бұрын

In the past, I've done the same…but cranked Vibrance to max instead. The results were genuinely psychedelic - but sure showed up any color cast immediately.

@karyleianawildernesscapes Жыл бұрын

My cameras stay at my custom WB [5000k] 98% of the time. For myself, I've found that to be the most "neutral" for majority of scenes & a good place to start when I do edit. Only time I personally use AUTO WB is for Underwater. For Astro, I'll use 5400K-5500K, depends on the scene, if there's Light pollution of some kind (& what color it is), but the reasoning for a "neutral-warm" WB is that stars have a warmer color in them. & when people choose cooler WBs, they effectively take away alot of the natural colors in the stars & often it leaves a very odd-looking blue/cyan tint to the sky, which is NOT natural looking. The other reason for a set WB (vs Auto) in Astro is typically people will stack their images for cleaner files, but if your WB shifts, many stacking softwares WON'T stack the files bc the settings aren't all identical.

@BarrySchirm Жыл бұрын

When using the eye dropper tool, I have found it is best to get the three values (RGB) on the small grid that displays as you hover over a point as close together as possible. With a true neutral grey, the three values will be the same.

@lphilpot01 Жыл бұрын

In some limited situations such as macro or other "nearby" subject matter there can be a fifth method -- Shooting a color checker (or even grey card) and then balancing on that. But when you're shooting a mountain seven miles away, the color checker or grey card gets too small to see after you've stretched your arm seven miles... 🙂At any rate, as you said "technical" white balance needs to be done first, before "artistic" color shifts are made.

@juergenbaumann8817 Жыл бұрын

While leaving the camera on auto WB (Nikon) - shooting a color checker with several neutral gray points will be beneficial - as you can quickly warm up or cool down your photo with the 'correct' WB and Tint combination. It brings you very quick in the right ball park and take it from there. And as a benefit you can use what your camera auto WB delivers. When ever possible, that is my most preferred approach. In my opinion that is not a limited scenario - you just have to make sure, that the same quality of light hits your gray card / color checker as your main subject or scene.

I generally use the dropper if I find the white balance to seem a little off. I also wanted to thank you for all your videos but especially this type of videos.

Good stuff. For tricky scenes I have found a lot of success using the Arias method of yanking the temp wayyy to the left or right and then slowly working it back and forth towards a temp that looks good to me, then doing the same with tint. It's similar to the full saturation method. Seeing everything completely out of whack makes the right colors more apparent to the nekid eye.

Usually I start with the „daylight“ setting in LR or C1 but I also shoot more and more with the camera on AWB to have this as kind of a second opinion. In any case, the idea of pulling up the saturation slider to max to help determine the desired adjustments is a very good one which I‘ll surely adopt.

Thanks Mark! I use C1, but never used the eyedropper/color picker method. It's pretty interesting. Typically, I will adjust to make something that should be white actually look white. If you notice that is what happened to the sails on the boat. But, starting with the color picker is a help!

You forgot to mention changing white balance with tone curves instead of white balance tool, but that definitely is not for beginners. But with it, you can change white balance to be different in different brightnesses, for example keep it pure white on highlights, but add warmth to mid tones and maybe even cooler to dark areas if that suits the image.

@sjedouglas Жыл бұрын

That was a good watch. For the most part, I tend to do what you suggested was unusual by adjusting the sliders by eye till most of the scene looks good, then I go in and make localised adjustments to the colours in certain areas until I get the photo looking exactly how I want it. However, there are some photos where I feel I can never get it quite right so I'll definitely be using the tips in this video.

You should feel proud of yourself. I've been applying your white balance technique on underwater photos and the result is stunning. Auto camera and auto LR just work poorly on underwater photos. I've always struggled greatly getting white balance anything close to even acceptable. With your 100% saturation technique, I can quickly make adjustments and the results are VERY consistent from photo to photo which tells me the method is quite valid. The photos look as I always hoped for but seldom achieved. Thanks for your fantastic videos. They're much appreciated and be aware they're resulting in real changes to your subscriber's photo editing capabilities.

Thanks Mark. A helpful video, and nice and gently presented too (as always). This may have already been raised in the hundreds of positive comments, but as you increase saturation, it’s often easy to see where colour channels separate in the histogram (we could see it on your screen!). It seems to me that part of achieving a good white balance is to bring those peaks closer together…

I have to admit this is where many images go from good to not as good because each photographer has preferences on what the image should look like. Include me … I have my opinions on color and balance that other viewers may really find less appealing.

Thanks, this is a tricky topic and this helps settle my own ideas. I also increase saturation, but my starting point is different. I gave up both on using Auto in camera and on picking a white object. I think that's what maybe a portrait photographer wants to neutralize light. Me, I want to capture the color of the moment. If the light is orange, I want it to stay orange. So, I now always set camera to daylight and that's my starting point

Great job on the explanation of your workflow, you break down the particulars of the color casts to be considered so one can make good choices about which tool or tools to use and in what order to achieve visually pleasing results. What do you think about using the Tone Curve tool to control color cast? Each channel has its own color specialty along the tonal spectrum for more precise control.

For the ultimate color balance, I use Dan Margulas' method. Somewhat more tedious but it does not assume the color shifts are equal across all points on the curves.

I have not yet mastered the increased saturation! Thanks for the edit show takes time to figure!!! Sunsets/Rises and Astro Milky Ways I like to cal the camera with a white dome in front of the lens or a grey in the square area. But the best is the Datacolor SpyderCube on a selfie stick where you sync two images in a program. Why Astro Milky Ways, High atmosphere gas colors along with the Yin/ Yang magenta/blue of pegasus/the smile in the sky, Also if in a very dark place it helps to adjust exposure. At night and in a very dark place the camera sees light brightness using the long exposure and even with a 3/4 Histogram you get a really bright image with stars and our eyes do not see colors very well in the dark but the camera gets all of the colors. Exp : your on a beach with tan sand and trees (green) to the right, water to the left that is blueish with some colors of a city or buildings with color reflecting off parts of the water, and a June/July summer hot night with colors of atmosphere gas colors like a rainbow and also above the white galactic center but above it the Pegasus Yin/Yang combine with a natural blue sky (yes at night) not too blue manbe light blue, then you need the color of the stars white/nebulas of red and some others dotting the sky. But our eyes never see the 98% of the colors and everyone looking at your final colorful image say you PSed it. Some capture with a astro mod camera. But like a microscope the camera captures what you can not see and everyone expects to see a grey/black sky. A NASA photographer from the film days has this advice for the night clarkvision.com/articles/color.of.the.night.sky/. The night colors will make you think your camera is bad when you edit and then make the sky grey. It is a long time learn!!! And the blue hour with the pink color of the sun 30 degrees below the horizon and doing a HDR 5@ +/- 2EV getting the darkside of driftwood bright as day with stary dark blue skies and pure white stars with buoys with christmas red and green way off shore all well are a challenge in post to get it real.

Mark, this is awesome man! WB is something I’ve always spent the most time on in post processing and trying to get it right. I’m definitely going to use this! Also, as a fellow Fuji shooter, something that has helped me is using the auto white balance shift. Fuji’s auto WB tends to lean a little too cool, so I set mine on +1 Red, -1 Blue. Not a drastic shift, but I have found this gives pretty true to life colors. This won’t get baked into the Raw file unfortunately, but I use the JPEG from the camera as a reference if needed.
