What is white balance and why should we adjust it?

The four main light sources involved in product photography are electronic flash, tungsten lamp, fluorescent lamp, and natural light. Sometimes, these light sources are combined into some combinations to form mixed light sources.

There are two ways to adjust white balance. One is to adjust the white balance setting that comes with the digital camera, and the other is to adjust it through image processing software after shooting. Moreover, the white balance of digital cameras is divided into fixed mode, automatic adjustment mode and manual mode. The white balance adjusted in automatic mode is sometimes over-adjusted. Therefore, in Shenzhen furniture photography and Shenzhen jewelry photography, manual white balance adjustment is the most reliable.

In addition, if you shoot in RAW format, you can change the white balance value at will in post-production.

Sometimes, early morning effects can also be taken during the day. Deliberately modifying the already correct white balance value is a very effective method in Shenzhen product photography, especially when emphasizing a certain effect.
