White Balance

What is white balance? What color is outside lighting vs. inside lighting? Why is it important to white-balance your camera?

    White balance is a camera setting that helps make the colors on camera look the same way they do in reality. You should white balance whenever the lighting conditions change. Lighting is measured in degrees Kelven, with outside lighting being blue at 5600k and inside lighting being orange at 3200k. It is important to white-balance your camera as the scene being filmed won't look the same as it does to the naked eye if you don't.
