Problem description:

When shooting a stage performance with a professional camera, there will be many lights of different colors. When and under what conditions can I adjust the white balance?

Analysis:

Generally speaking, the purpose of using white balance is to obtain more satisfactory color reproduction effect under various light colors. Of course, in general, what is needed is a more accurate primary color effect of the subject. But sometimes, what is needed is a special sense of color.

For example, when shooting a meeting scene, people need to see normal color performance. At this time, it is best to manually correct the white balance of the camera against a white object under the relative main living light.

Shooting a stage performance is different.

If 1 is a performance, singing, sketch and other programs decorated with spotlights, people need relatively accurate color expression at this time. No one wants to see a serious singer turn purple or blue. ) At this time, you can usually use automatic white balance. If the light is stable, manual correction can also be used.

If it is a popular singing, dancing and other programs, then if there are a lot of colored lights flashing on the stage at this time, it can be explained that the current performance content does not pursue the original color effect of the object, but relies on the various colors and combination effects of various lights to render different daily feelings, otherwise what colored lights are needed? We must strive to highlight the light and color atmosphere. Therefore, it is best not to use automatic white balance, otherwise it will weaken the warm effect of the scene. At this time, the daylight color temperature range (5500-6000K) can be preset, which can fully record the scene color lighting effect and highlight the strong scene atmosphere.
