About White Balance
The human eye has the ability to compensate so that it sees white
subjects as white, whatever the light source. Digital cameras and simi-
lar devices can also “see” white subjects as white by first adjusting the
color balance of the ambient light to match the photo subject. This
adjustment is called the White Balance.
