<p>[QUOTE="SuperDave, post: 2580098, member: 1892"]A custom white balance setting is accomplished simply by taking a picture of a white (or 18% grey as pro photographers do) card under the exact lighting you'll use for the image, and telling the camera "this is the color to balance." You don't need to know the specific color temperature in Kelvin; only the highest of high-end dSLR's allow specific Kelvin settings. For an iPhone, I don't believe Apple's Camera app allows Custom white balance but there are aftermarket apps which do.</p><p><br /></p><p>Me, I shoot a small stack of printer paper for white balance, when I bother. My camera's Tungsten setting pretty much corrects Jansjos properly, although sometimes the reverse of Morgans comes out yellower than the obverse. Still haven't figured that one out. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
