The three R (red), G (green), and B (blue) primary colors exist in varying
proportions in a light source depending on its color temperature. When the
color temperature is high, there is more blue. And when the color
temperature is low, there is more red.
To the human eye, a white object still looks white regardless of the type of
lighting. With a digital camera’s white balance setting, you can compensate
for the color temperature so that the colors in the image look more natural.
The subject’s white color is corrected and used as the basis for adjusting
