White Balance Homework

I signed up for another photography class this month, and one of the things he had us do for class this week was get off of auto white balance settings.  I definitely notice that the pictures are warmer.

    I just read a blog post about that! Do you set them yourself, or are your using the settings on your camera? (I’ve only just started playing with it, and the settings on my camera will give me a lot to play with for a while 🙂

    Anna, he said in most situations, he shoots in daylight setting (which on my camera is 5200 K). I haven’t had a chance to play around with setting them myself yet. I’m going to try to shoot on this setting for a few weeks and see what I think. Definitely with the kind of light we get in our living/eating area, I think it works. Not sure about the rest of the house and the backyard (which is often harshly half bright light, half shade). Let me know what you figure out there–I think we have the exact same camera.
