Using the custom white balance and also the Kelvin Scale setting, if you’re camera has it, can be the missing links to a good shot. Glad you’re playing with it!

I’ve never used the custom white balance before. Just checked it out on my camera. Think I’ll be experimenting this weekend. Thanks for the tips

Love the series! THANK YOU! ^.^
Thank you for taking the time to share these information.
I can’t wait for the flash photography part to come out, actually, scratch that, can’t wait for the rest of the series to come out. I’ve been having trouble with lighting, and some people I’ve met said to use flash, some said no. Can’t wait to find out your take on it

This information is really helpful – I’ve read it about 10x now. I’m starting to learn how to take pictures indoors for my blog, and its REALLY hard. White balance is something that I’m really struggling with. Thank you for taking the time to write all this for those of us who are still learning how to get the most out of dSLRs!

I’ve spent the weekend reading through the lessons so far. I have a lot of trouble with white balance. My photos have a real blue tinge, although I use the auto WB. Hopefully after I’ve digested this lesson I will avoid the blue tinge. I really appreciate these posts. Thanks Todd and Diane.

I really enjoy reading and benefiting from your simple and easy-to-follow online guide on photography. It really provides a good refresher course for early beginners in photography like myself. I am very interested in food photography and I am really looking forward to your upcoming articles on food photography!

This post is quite helpful! Even though I calibrate my camera to a custom white balance, the trick for me is to keep the same color tones consistent through a series of photographs. I discovered that at times, I prefer cool tones and at other times, I prefer warm. They look fine individually, but when you put them into a collection, it just looks messy and unfocused. Any suggestions on how to easily reinforce consistency?
