  • If you want your videos to look good, stop using auto white balance. In this video, I'll show you why manual white balance is key for high-quality footage. Say goodbye to that awkward blue or orange tint in your videos with this easy to follow system that I wish I had when I was first starting out with cameras.

      The one extra challenge I find is my Sony ZVe10 display isn't color-correct. I think I might invest in an external monitor that does have accurate color so I can do on-the-fly corrections.

      Great to hear about zebras helping your exposure, I can relate. I found the zve10 screen to be ok (maybe these white balance tips will be helpful) and external monitors can be great 🤙

    8:55 I was just about to ask about custom presets. It's so annoying that you can't custom white balance in these modes with sony. This is why I've always just used AWB. Ok, back to the video... I think you may just convince me to start using manual WB...

    Aren't these numbers backward? I thought the higher kelvin the warmer the the light. 4:17

    • @seandewispelaere
      @seandewispelaere  Před 9 dny +1

      The in-camera ones are, yes, they work backwards in contrast to light source Kelvin (which is a large part of what makes this stuff confusing in my opinion)

    if you use slog for video should you set your white balance before switching to slog?
