White Balance
When the brightness of the light changes, our eyes adapt the difference so that the white object remains white. For digital still cameras, they can also see the white object as white by averaging the light around the subject.
The camera determines the white balance by averaging the various kinds of light that actually enters the lens. You may set in advance the white balance when taking photographs under specific lighting conditions.
