How to deal with color overflow and light overflow in flower photography

The reason of color overflow is the recognition error of white balance system, which often appears on red and yellow flowers. Solution My experience is:

1, the method to change the color temperature of the camera. It is to replace the automatic white balance of the camera with a custom color temperature. Of course, this requires a wealth of experience. For flowers, there is no fixed empirical value, but for the shooting stage, my empirical value is to set the color temperature around 3800k (the default value for digital cameras is 5500K). For flowers, we can only reduce the color temperature (to make the color cool, below 5500K is a cool tone, above 5500 is a warm tone), and to what extent, we must try again and again;

2. Underexposure method. Less exposure during shooting can reduce overflow;

3. Late adjustment method. As long as it is not exposed, the color balance can be adjusted again later, especially the RAW format, which can be adjusted more accurately.
