Thank you.
Did you know why there are a number of "standard" white settings? ie: 3200 (tungsten) 5200 (Daylight) 6200 (Shade) Etc. These numbers are preset because skin tone is rendered the best at these settings. With all the grading attributes these days it is fairly easy to repair that. But in the old days you lived by those settings and adjusted your lights accordingly with gels.
you can set the auto WB to white in exposure settings. This makes the camera set the WB on the whitest part. It’s good for when you need to use auto WB in a pinch.
Suuuuuper useful video to truly understand this aspect. I consider it a very important if not the most important aspect when it comes to how footage will look
Thanks man!
Thank you, it was very interesting, especially with examples what you showed us.
@@evies_home Thanks!
My Nikon D5600 does not allow me to set white balance in kelvins, and the presets have magenta and green shift. Smartphone from like 10 years ago and Nikon D80 from 2006 allows you to do that but not pretty professional DSLR from 2016. Thank you Nikon!
Do you do anything with magenta or green shift in camera? My experience with Sony is that it tends to add a yellow/red cast to the image and I’m not sure how to get rid of it in camera. Very helpful tutorial!
@@RandumbTech That was more the problem with older Sony, latest cameras have amazing colors 👌
You can do that in the custom WB (be sure to not be in MR mode) if you white balance from a WB card it will shift the gamma depending on your lighting. Or you can do it manually. I do think the Sony color adds some yellow and red. Easy to take out in post though.
Imma have to try this. Thanks for the info
@@jseasphotography8627 Anytime 🙏
you kept mentioning going higher on the kelvin scale to go warmer, but actually it's the opposite. or am i confused? 2,500 is low and the warmest, while 10,000k is the highest and the coolest.
@@ckdesignlab While thats true in the kelvin scale, you have to move the opposite way to make either end warmer or cooler
Took me a while to get my head round this! Remember that the WB control on your camera is effectively to compensate for the colour temperature in the scene, to make white look white in the photograph.
@@LucaEpifani yep you're right! I never even paid attention to the numbers in my camera. I just adjusted left or right to my satisfaction. 😂
If the white in your frame is lit by 4000K light, you balance your image white point to cooler light so your white looks warmer. The opposite applies for cooler tones. I hope I explained it well enough.
The kelvin scale use in WB is ment to level your white in your composition, meaning that what is warm will become white when you dial down the kelvins to compensate it's warmth. Altho you don't want that in most cases, so you dial up so warm lights are warmer and keep an eye for skin tones et cetera.
Very good advice.
I often conducted interviews indoors and lighted them with two 60W sources. Both set 5600K. When I use a7IV to set the white balance using a white card, I get 5300-5400K and on ZV-E1, 4800K. Should I follow the 4800K for both cameras?
Follow one of the two, as long as they are on the same white balance you should be good to balance them out in post!
Great Video. Very Informative
Thanks!
What picture profile do you recommend, or it just depends on your own style for videos?
@@jaredrosales9921 I always shoot on Slog3 👌
Examples are very instructional🤙
@@JeffreyJDavis Thanks man! Means a lot!
what about using the daylight presets etc?
I would recommend always sticking to the most manual setting you can get, so you get to know exactly what kelvin works best when and in the long run, you'll get better at it.
Great Video
thanks!
What if I'm shooting stills at a concert where the lights are constantly changing?
@@AdamTartoria I would keep it always around daylight 5600 and fix whatever doesn’t look great in post production. So that you have a nice constant look through-out
