Polaroid Digital Camera Tips, Tricks, Terms, and Techniques

What is “white-balance compensation”?

If you are shooting indoors without a flash, or in other unusual lighting conditions,
your digital photos may be tinted with strange colors (such as orange, green, or blue).
Many Polaroid digital cameras use white-balance compensation to fix this problem. If
your camera includes this feature:

Use the camera’s automatic white-balance setting for most lighting conditions.

If flash is prohibited or not being used indoors, you may want to try the camera’s
fluorescent, or tungsten setting, depending on the source of the prevailing
lighting.
