I'm using s602z. I understand the purpose of white balance is to adjust the tone, accuracy and strength of WHITE in the scene so that the DVC or DC can adjust the tones and strength of the colours of other objects in the scene.
How do you determine which white balance setting to use ? For me, i compare visually what i see on the LCD and what is the tone/shade of the real thing. But when the shots come out, sometimes it isn't very obvious that it worked.
For eg, Bugis MRT station platform has a orange tinge.. the most applicable WB setting I used is "Sunny Outdoors" ?? because other colour of the metal doors and concrete ground appear closest. But the shows still came out quite orangy.
Is mastering WB essential to get a good shot ? i suppose for accurate true colour reproduction ?
