Note: Whereas using the White Balance controls adjusts the tints of all tonal values in the image
uniformly, the Black Tint, Gray Tint, and White Tint eyedropper tools allow you to selectively
neutralize color casts that affect only the shadows, midtones, or highlights. In some difficult
cases, you can use the Black Tint, Gray Tint, and White Tint eyedropper tools in combination with
the White Balance controls to first neutralize a tint in a specific tonal range and then uniformly
remove the tint from the rest of the image. For more information about adjusting white balance,
