Color Temperature
Color temperature is an objective measure of the color of a light source,
expressed in Kelvin (K). Light sources with a color temperature close to that
of direct sunlight appear white; light sources with a lower color tempera-
ture have a yellow or red cast, while those with a higher color temperature
are tinged with blue. You can match color temperature to the light source,
or choose options that di er sharply from the color of the light source to
make pictures “warmer” or “colder.”
DYNAMIC RANGE
Control contrast. Choose lower values to increase contrast when
shooting indoors or under overcast skies, higher values to reduce
loss of detail in highlights when photographing high-contrast
scenes. Higher values are recommended for scenes that include
both sunlight and deep shade, for such high-contrast subjects as
sunlight on water, brightly-lit autumn leaves, and portraits taken
against a blue sky, and for white objects or people wearing white.
