Fluorescent Lighting

Written by Administrator | Fluorescent lighting can produce unwanted blue/gray effects in your photographs. With a digital camera, you can compensate for these unwanted effects. Actually, you can prevent them with settings programmed right into your camera. If you don't have your user manual with you, don't worry. The adjustments are pretty easy to make. This is how we get to know the ins and outs of our camera. Find the manual or program mode on your camera. It's usually located on a dial on the top. Turn the dial to the manual or program mode. Press the Function Set button. When you press the Function Set button, icons appear on the screen. Scroll down to the AWB, or Auto White Balance, icon. This reveals icons for incandescent ighting, sunny days and other lighting options, in addition to fluorescent. The shapes of these icons will be different, depending on the brand of your camera. The fluorescent icon on a lot of cameras, is a tiny rectangle with rays. Select the fluorescent icon to automatically adjust your camera flash settings to support the fluorescent light. As you scroll over the different light adjustment icons, the tint of the image on your camera screen changes. Digital camera settings for fluorescent lighting are created for the type of blue/gray fluorescents commonly found in offices and commercial buildings. Many types of fluorescent lights are daylight balanced, and won't create the unwanted blue/gray effects in your photographs. Check the settings before you take your next picture, as the adjusted setting Remains, change it back to the Auto White Balance mode.
