When shooting jpegs or video, it’s crucial to set a

custom white balance that is as accurate as possible.

Jpegs and video clips are highly compressed ﬁles and

don’t allow for dramatic adjustments in color

temperature, so you need to get it right in the camera.

The box on the right shows how I set a custom color

temperature. Take a test shot or use Live View mode

to check your settings, and tailor the settings until the

scene looks right.

You can do further white balancing in the WB Shift/

Bkt pane. Selecting this menu brings up the pane

below.

Here, I don’t use the bracket feature but rather the

White Balance Shift options. If your subject’s face is

showing too much red, try tabbing the cursor to the

left one or two clicks. Take another close-up test

frame or use Live View, and zoom in to see how the

color looks now. Keep experimenting until the scene

looks good.

Color Space. I set the camera to capture in Adobe

RGB as it has a wider color gamut than sRGB, and

as such allows for greater manipulation of the images

with less degradation.
