POWER USER TIP: If shooting a studio set with flash or HMI lighting,
use of the ISO-BKT function will permit you to obtain bracketed
exposures even though the camera is set to manual. The only downside
to this is possible ISO artefacts arising if the correct exposure happened
to be obtained at a very high ISO value. A solution to that would be to
analyse the images, calculate the correct exposure value at a lower ISO
setting and use that, either by setting the aperture/shutter setting or
increasing the flash/lighting power output
.
WHITE BALANCE
White Balance refers to the correction applied by the camera’s
metering system to adjust for light that is not white. We humans
have an automatic white balance programme in our vision system
that always presents an object we expect to appear white (say a
sheet of A4 paper) as white.
This is so whether we are looking at it beside a fire (when it is in
fact yellow/orange) or under a fluorescent light tube (when it is
in fact green/brown). As the camera records the light “as is” (and
anyone remembering the use of daylight film indoors without
flash will attest to this after viewing the orange images they
obtained in those conditions) it is necessary for the digital
processor to adjust the colour balance of all pictures to ensure
that white areas appear normal when the photograph is viewed.
One of the universally praised features of the E-3 is its uncannily
accurate white balance algorithm. It renders true to life colours in
virtually any situation and has, according to anecdotal evidence
