  1. WB help

    Hello

     

    I was in Egypt some months ago, I took alot of picture but I had problem to get the right color. I tried many differnt ways to set the WB but I didn´t figure the best way, som turned red and some green.

    Is the best way to mesuare the white against a white card with strobe ligth? or is there a better way? If you mesure the white against a white card with strobe light doesn´t everything that is not light up by the strobe turn very blue because that the strobe light is more red than normal light.

    Also whats the best way for night dives?

  2. Hi Johann,

    It's a bit difficult to answer your question without knowing what camera you are using.

    However, assuming you are using a camera with a RAW file mode, it is best to perform WB adjustments at home on the computer.

    Alternatively, assuming you are using a camera with only a jpg mode and want to set the WB during the dive, I'm afraid someone else may have to pitch in here... :lol:
