What if the color of the photo is distorted?

In fact, the reasons for the color distortion of photos are very complicated. The colors of all kinds of scenery are not the original colors, and the serious color deviation is either dull or light, which is called color distortion.

Color distortion can be summarized into three situations:

First, the film itself, such as low quality; When the color film is formed and stored, it will fail due to long-term moisture or heat storage.

Second, there are mistakes in washing, drug concentration, temperature and time. , which may cause color distortion.

Thirdly, it is the color deviation caused by photographic light source, such as the imbalance between the color temperature of illumination light and the color temperature of film.

Methods to prevent color distortion:

1. Whether it is color reversal film, slide or negative film, it is an important link for users to keep the film well under the condition that the manufacturer guarantees the quality of each batch.

First, it should be moisture-proof and second, it should be protected from high temperature.

Never put it near the heating, in a damp corner or in the sun. The original packaging of the film only plays the role of light leakage, but does not play the role of moisture and heat protection. It's best to keep it in the refrigerator.

Buy a proper amount of film at a time, and then buy it when it is used up. Don't overstock in case it expires. The validity of the film is not absolute, but depends on the preservation conditions. Although the film sold in the market has not yet expired, it is not well preserved. If it is left on the counter for a long time, it is likely to expire in advance. Images taken by expired or expired films are bound to be distorted and disordered. When the film is loaded into the camera, it should be shot quickly, because if the film is left in the camera for a long time and not cleaned for a long time after exposure, it will distort the color and cause irreparable losses.

It is best to develop the film by yourself, so that it can be corrected according to the exposure during the development. If the film is developed by a print shop, it is necessary to explain the shooting situation and remind the master to master the exposure and color change during the development.

Special reminder to everyone:

1. The film used for photographing must be consistent with the nature and color temperature of the lighting light to ensure the purity of the color. If the color temperatures of two or more photographic light sources are quite different, the color temperatures of artificial light sources can be changed through filters.

2. After the film is developed, the color deviation caused by illumination can also be corrected during distribution and plate making, because the color deviation caused by illumination only covers the surface of the picture with one color, rather than the color imbalance inside the color sensitive layer of the film, which is easy to be corrected. However, the corrected color is impure and dark.

I hope the above content can help you find the real reason for the color distortion of photos.
