White balance

Hi Julie,

We had a professional photographer in our home today taking photos of our kids so I took the opportunity to ask him a few questions about lighting. I was having trouble getting what I considered 'true' or real color with my digital camera. The first thing he suggested was that I use my 'white balancing'. I had no idea what that was or even if my camera had it.

Well, my camera has it. It might help you, my manual says "when the white balance mode is set to match the light source, the camera can reproduce colors more accurately." That sounds good,doesn't it?

I wish I could tell you more about it and/or if it'll really help, but that might be something for you to experiment with.

Good luck,

Joan
