How To White Balance In a Mixed Lighting Environment?

[@jenningsford8066]

I have the ExpoDisk and was instructed to stand where the subject is located, then point the camera/ExpoDisk back towards the camera shot taking position since you will be photographing with the light falling on it from that direction, to get preset white balance. It works very well for me that way. In your videos case, it would be upwards and slightly forward towards the light source(s). I do honestly think that would have helped with the slight yellow tint from the overpowering incandescent lighting. Anyway, thanks for a great video!

[@Erosgy2406]

Only a word in order to congratulate you!, the way you explain, the tone, the calm, the knowledge that you share with all of us makes it all so simple to understand, that I cannot thank you enough for such a quality master class, one after the other. A big thankyou, from Barcelona.

Outstanding. I feel like I have wasted 4 years watching the Junk on Photography on KZbin. This is a great insightful lesson.

[@arunbarve]

Your , english,your talking habits , style and knowledge is par excellent !!

[@Gaurav_Prakash]

[03/02, 6:39 pm] Gaurav Prakash: Sir - Your Effort in this direction is genuinely commendable. I thank you for simplifying so many complex or misunderstood photographic concepts. Wishing that you soon are followed by a million enthusiasts. 😊👌👌👍👍👏👏🍸🍾 [03/02, 6:49 pm] Gaurav Prakash: Sir if possible please give us a convincing piece of your mind whether great photos are "taken" or "made". Is it absolutely okay to use post processing to make simple photographs to amazing pieces of photographic art?? This confusion is still a dilemma with a lot of photographers. Regards🙏

[@mahathirafar9366]

legend explaining things with many years under his belt. respect

[@IanKeegan]

I'm addicted to your videos Radhakrishnan!! I worked support for a particular camera company many years ago and I gotta say, I didn't explain white balance half as good as you in this video. Mixed lighting was actually a common question from customers, new or customers who were actually professionals

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

Ian Keegan 🙏🙏🙏

[@ks2105]

Guruji, Eureka. I never had such a clear explanation of balancing white for different incident lighting conditions. Thanks for your effort.

[@vamsiikriishna]

I never comment on youtube videos, but this is an Exception. Your content and explanation is as beautiful as your videos. Teaching is also an art like photography and you sir have mastered both... Thanks for these exceptional videos. Continue the good work and keep inspiring us to be better photographers.

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

Thank you Sir... for your comments.

[@navjyothkumar6754]

You guys are phenomenal. I'd bet everything that I have, that in a few years worth of content from your channel, one would not need to attend a college. Amazing work guys! Thanks for all this education! This was much needed!

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

Navjyoth Kumar Thank you Sir... For your kind word and wishes 😊 🙏

[@Shaunchiprue]

Great 👍🏾 perspective on perfect vs absolute. beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Keeps the stress down when we keep that in mind

Thank you so much for this video.. after watching this video a few days back. I am using White balance and the results are very good. Thank you once again

[@25Wineman]

Just watched your two videos on white balance & another on colour matching. You made a difficult concept easy to understand. Thank you.

[@upayandutta3686]

A very well explained video and concepts. Thanks.

[@odyssey_outings]

[@discoverap]

RESPECT for the amazing way you explain things concepts in simple understandable language [ i rather would call it visual poetry ] RESPECT SIR

[@reydahamadou8737]

Very professional content. Thank you sir you are a True Master.

[@zvett79]

I think the expodisc is supposed to be aimed at the incoming light at the place of your subject, not aimed at the light reflected from the scene at the position of the photographer.

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

That's right. I aimed it at the hanging lights. 🙏

[@vijaymallepula4640]

Thank you sir, I am learning so much in photography.

[@shootnlearn4290]

thanks for this video it will help me a lot in my weeding photography

[@dronetechie969]

wow incredible white balance video

[@bfs5113]

Although I had all these gadgets (white card, ExpoDisc & Passport) but I preferred using a color meter in many situations. Just like using incident meter, spot meter, flash and Lux meters.

[@fabiohug5509]

Very good explanation Sir. Thanks very much. Regards, F

[@Scorpionhunter007]

Excellent technical learning, thank you

[@donpointer2656]

[@juancarlosleivaacuna1947]

As usual, very very good explanation. Thanks a lot, i`m learning vey much with your videos.

[@LexChan]

Hi sir. Great info. Getting WB correct is great and pretty straight forward.. my biggest challenge is counter environment lights AND plus flash to get the perfect WB.

[@LifeExotics]

clear and beneficial tips for white balance. Nice to see such high quality content (and you even demonstrated with my Nikon :) )

[@navrajsharma7393]

I just love the way u teach and explain things...😍😍😍 #guruji

Easy and simple. Thanks a ton Sir.

[@milind4975]

[@weddingbells100]

Many thank,s Rad very very interesting video, I did not realize that holding down the white balance button would give a W/B data info.

[@maulanasharief2604]

Thank you for sharing your talent

Sir the thing I have always wanted is here. Thanks for this video.

[@elvispanther]

Ugh. You are so awesome! Thank you again for the inspiration and knowledge.

[@alwynmc1]

Great Video

[@oh_aces]

I fucking love your channel bro! I know most of this stuff already (not bragging, it helps me teach actually), but the way you go through it makes it a very effective teaching tool. I can send this video to anyone and itll be better at showing them proper techniques than I can explain with words. If you guys are ever in NYC, I'll buy you a drink. Thank you,

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

Oh Aces Thank you brother for your kind words... 🙏 😊 (Will remember that offer 😜👍)

[@meenakshidharambir637]

Hello... Your Explanation is Very good... Plz tell something about Metering timer(Canon user)

[@judereilly6673]

Great and very helpful video.

[@johngiannini697]

Like I have said before very informative and well done. Worth my time.

[@Luigi13]

[@vishweshwarkandalgaonkar3446]

Nicely explained, thanks for sharing

[@lenp00]

Brilliant video, thank you 🙏

[@josephbarberphotography]

cool! never knew about using a filter to get the WB

[@sandeeplalka]

This is too good. I did not know how to use preset WB in camera... have always heard about the grey card, but that has been difficult for non pro photo enthusiasts as we shoot more for hobby than profession - hence do not wish to carry the 10% grey cards or similar things. But this preset manual was the best solution to people like us

[@AnuragBose_atomusic]

Such well made videos sir! Happy to have come across your channel. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge with us.

[@stephencoxbass]

Great stuff!

[@KandidReviews]

very simply explained, I prefer the grey card :) I loved ur studio setup, your art director did a good half job :)

[@vishnuskumar1900]

Very informative video again..thank you team pixel village ..Can u give us a video explaining metering?

[@elena_berlant]

Your videos are perfect 👍 thank you

ahhhh.... i just love the closing speech.. :-D

[@OrenBVideo]

A wonderful video, thanks a lot!

[@COMEDYiNSiDE]

Valuable... Thanks a lot. respect.

[@kunaldas1]

Excellent informative tutorial

[@allunthulasi1805]

Thanks sir for your valuable information.

[@reoflex]

Excellent video, very helpful. However, Nikon cameras need not be put into manual focus mode with the ExpoDisc 2.0. They work with the ExpoDisc just fine in auto focus mode in P, A, and S modes. Just checked the ExpoDisc manual and verified this. Also tested it on my D850 and D810 and they all took the exposure perfectly in auto focus mode with no hunting at all. Hope this is helpful.

[@PIXELVIILAGE]

Rob O Great! Just learned something. Thank you for the update. Regards... 🙏 😊

[@th-hannibal]

Another great video Sir.

[@LuisAlvarez-fj5ny]

The best video on white balance! You are a gr8 communicator. If I am using on camera flash in an incandescent ambient light, do I make the pre recording with flash on or off? I mean, does the preset manual mode also work for flash?

[@soumyadeepghosh8300]

sir please make a video about 'back button focus'..you are a great teacher.. always wait for your video...

[@Canucks2024-m2u]

Hopefully I won't offend anyone by cross promoting, but Steve Perry has done a very nice video on back button focus here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKvUgqahfNSIiKc
