#14 : White Balance




The Martin Bailey Photography Podcast (Enhanced) show

Summary: Springing from an interesting thread in Photographic Techniques forum on my Web site this week, I talk about how I deal with White Balance. You can find the thread here: http://www.martinbaileyphotography.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=315 You can find the post with the example photograph of my gray card and Gretag Macbeth Mini-Color Checker card shot in the field and used for subsequent shots that day here: http://www.martinbaileyphotography.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=323 Here's the link from the first post to an excellent article called Understanding White Balance on Sean McHugh's equally excellent Web site, Cambridge in Colour: http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/white-balance.htm The WhiBal (White Balance) Reference Card sets also looks great. I haven't used a WhiBal set myself yet, though like a few other members, its now on order.
