Exclamation White Balance & Kelvin - Reference Info

http://www.apogeephoto.com/july2004/jaltengarten7_2004.shtml

http://www.mediacollege.com/lighting/colour/colour-temperature.html

http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/white-balance.htm

http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/whitebalance.htm

Just in case anyone wondered what the Kelvin manual settings ought to be for a given lighting situation other than (AUTO WB), the above links may help you to see what does what and the effects of what will have when under given lighting conditions . . . am I making sense here?

It may be one of those ooooh! 'Now I understand' moments . . .
