WB (light source)
White balance represents the light source that influences on the colour of a photo.
The colour of a photo depends on the type and quality of the light source. If you want the
colour of your photo to be realistic, select an appropriate lighting condition to calibrate the
white balance, such as
Auto WB
,
Daylight
,
Cloudy
,
Tungsten
, or adjust colour temperature
manually.
You can also adjust colour for the preset light sources so that the colours of the photo match
the actual scene under mixed lighting conditions.
