Color Temperature
The perceived color of a light source varies with the viewer; some may
have a red cast while others appear blue. Color temperature is an
objective measure of the color of a light source, expressed in Kelvins (K).
The lower the color temperature, the redder the cast (
q
); the higher the
temperature, the bluer the cast (
w
).
A
Choosing a Color Temperature
In general, choose lower values if your pictures have a red cast or to
intentionally make pictures bluer, higher values if your pictures are tinged
blue or to intentionally make pictures redder.
