Shooting techniques

The color of the subject that you see will be captured according to the lighting conditions. Under the bright summer sun, everything will appear bluish, under a light sources like a light bulb, white objects will appear reddish. The human eye has an excellent ability to adjust. Even when lighting conditions change, the eye can adjust and recognize the correct color almost instantly. However, digital still cameras are greatly influenced by light. Normally, this camera adjusts automatically, but if you notice that the color of the entire image seems to be a bit unnatural when replaying an image on the LCD screen, it is recommended that you adjust the white balance.
