White Balance & Kelvin Color temp explained 💡

[@binhminh417]

I've never quite understood the White Balance & Kelvin Color temperature and how it influences the quality of videos/pictures until now. I'm a visual learner so I appreciate the illustration. You have the ability to explain things clearly and effectively, making it understandable and useful for others. Keep up the good work! Thank you.

[@modo203]

This wins as the best White Balance tutorial on the entire internet. Hands down. I saw the video twice for the concept to sink in, and I've saved it on my KZbin list for Photography. Thank you for sharing the knowledge!

[@gasura]

Best video on color temperature indeed. No beating around the bush and straight to the point.

[@aland1618]

This is the best example of White Balance I've seen. Now I fully understand the concept of white balance and can now use that to set the stage for my videos.

[@catherinelois8996]

This is literally the best explanation of white balance ever

[@jsnwlbrn98]

As a beginner photographer and cinematographer, this was the best explanation of White Balance I have seen. Great job!!!

[@craigruchman7007]

Probably the best I’ve seen on this topic

[@lensprotogo]

Thanks, Craig!

[@NickG450]

Hooray somebody who actually knows this stuff! Thanks for refreshing my memory- its been a while since I studied Kelvin scale

[@DomaArquitetura]

What a perfect explanation!!! Thank you so much... helps me a lot! Best regards from Brazil

[@lensprotogo]

Thank you and you are welcome!

Sorry to be so off topic but does any of you know a way to get back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost my account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me!

[@yaelrayden197]

@Noe Eric instablaster =)

[@noeeric9325]

@Yael Rayden I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@armando.visuals]

Watching this in 2020. Still best white balance video explanation I've seen.

[@Hoyts_Hillside_Farm]

4.4K recognize great work. 98 people too insecure to do anything with their lives except troll great content makers. You know you’re doing it well when you got haters. Way to go LensProToGo. I’m gonna show this video to my students!

[@steveshawl2186]

I have just looked at a number of white balance videos, and this is the best one by far!! Thanks.

[@hurleygreen927]

BIG THUMBS UP FOR THIS VIDEO! Most of us probably use the Auto White Balance in our cameras, but you are showing us how to move up to the pro level...thanks!

[@AntoniaSara]

Im currently studying photography, and this video "Kelvin for dummies" really helped me out here. Now I'm way more confident about what this actually is.. so much better than the other nonsense eplenations I've heard before! Thank you :D

[@wakuyanow]

This was so easy to understand. I didn't know any of this before watching your video. Great job, teacher.

[@CrazyNate]

Such great illustrations. Thanks.

[@brockelent9013]

This was the absolute best breakdown and understanding of light kalvin's relationship with the camera's settings. Awesome job! I am now subscribed! :-) You just saved me a ton of money.

[@anjaxtv]

I go back to this video over and over and over again 👏🏾. Thank you!!

[@itsdavehimself]

Holy shit! This is the first time I've heard it explained like this. So simple - thank you!

[@wideanglephotos9044]

Wow... the explanation of kelvin with examples provided was awesome. Thank you so much Greg.. Loved your tutorials

[@TheOtherMeLV]

Best white balance in kelvin video I have seen

[@zaadbinrabi7512]

This is the best solution I've found on KZbin.

[@Johnnygoto]

The best explanation on KZbin

[@SeanColey]

This is exactly the explanation I was looking for. Thank you!

[@JoeMunoz93]

I FINALLY understand this! Thank you for this clear explanation! The visuals really helped. Great video 👍

[@dalewatkins9889]

Wonderful video, explaining it in detail, thus the only problem (at least for me) is in remembering it all whilst in the field! I tend to use Auto 1 on my Nikon d750, where post can make any necessary adjustments, but I will try and adjust as needed and 'play' so to speak, to try and readily get a better understanding. Thanks!

[@Pixie_Illusions]

Best video on K elvin on KZbin...Thank you

[@HardwareUnknown]

Wait... IT'S THAT SIMPLE? I've been trying to understand what white balance actually means and why I should pay attention to it as I start making videos. This sealed the deal for me. I've been looking into a set of lights and was concerned that the color would be difficult to manage since they are daylight panels rather than bi-color. I want them, though, since they're much more powerful than their bi-color equivalent. It seems that a simple white balance setting adjustment will fix color issues, at least enough for what I need. Thank you so much for the explanation.

[@JussiTarvainen]

I'd love for you to do videos on the basics and fundamentals of different lighting scenarios from low budget to higher budget and from different scenarios that often repeat in various film productions. Super grateful for what you do already though!

[@JussiTarvainen]

lensprotogo good point. I was thinking how you would light different scenes and why you would light them a certain way. You know different interview setups, dialog close ups, external and internal scenarios. Obviously this can take a tremendous effort and might be too much to do just for a tutorial. Maybe this could be done if you have bts footage of your own shoots or using cinedesigner. But also lighting breakdowns are super helpful too. You seem to be a very good teacher as you are able to explain things and break them down into small enough chunks which makes learning a lot easier. As you can probably tell from my unspecific questions that I'm at a beginner level in lighting and do t even know all the things I need to know so take it with grain and salt :)

[@JussiTarvainen]

Can't wait Greg! Awesome, I'll check that out. No specific scenes in mind. I guess what I'm asking is to learn the fundamentals and some basic examples of lighting so I can get a start on lighting. Then progessively learn how to light scenes on my own and make my own judgements why I'd light them in a certain way :) Even if you know any good solid books on lighting would be great but video and 3D seem to be much more intuitive and easier ways to learn lighting while applying it. Yeah that video from Matt was fantastic, how to light on a shoe string budget :) Thank you for taking the time to reply Greg!

[@TechAbetSolutions]

One of the best explanation that I have ever seen. Thanks....

[@DilanJay]

Bro that was a brilliant video. I really loved that!

[@jingxixu]

best explanation on white balance I have seen

[@jasminavuckovic4460]

So we'll explained and down to the point love this 😍

[@kskittisak2727]

A visualization that makes white balance easy to understand.🎉

[@LensTracks]

Excellent video and explanation! Just one correction: it is not correct to talk about "degrees" Kelvin, it is just Kelvin.

[@lsteiner]

I suspect we are not your intended audience (lamp buyers), but this was very helpful in finding an office lamp!

[@Levi_Allen]

Love those cine designer mock ups. Nice work team.

[@dennisvance4004]

That was a very good explanation. of all the aspects of photography this is the want to keep coming back to because it’s the hardest to get a hold of.

[@lensprotogo]

Thanks, Dennis! Hopefully, this video helps solidify the concept.

[@MarkShermanvlog]

super helpful!! wow, this makes that scary "K" on the camera a lot less scary :) Thanks dude!

[@poisonousmeattwo3624]

I don't think i look scary

[@billy.the.maker.]

Best WB video on KZbin!

[@guitarlickzvideolessons3745]

Best explanation on KZbin. Thanks a lot

[@oguzT800]

Thank you so much. I've watched lots of videos about wb and color tempatures for my mastering my abilities. And this video is has best explanations and samples.

[@christianleetrager4605]

Awesome! Perfect. Now I actually understand "white balance," as in white light. Thank you.

[@adryanno]

How can one dislike this video? Amazing infos bro! Thanks

[@lensprotogo]

Thanks Adrian!

[@LiquidLensPhotography]

Agreed!

[@HobbyVolt]

This was SO HELPFUL and concise! Thank you so much!

[@phamdung2938]

A very clear explanation, now I know how to change the mood of the context just by WB persepctive. Thank you so much for helpful content.

[@joaomarques7180]

Well i was here expecting to learn about the car headlights temperature and i was amazed at how much more it meant

[@shearel3]

Exactly what i was looking for. Thanks.

[@BCapen]

Great video. Now, can you explain why a warmer color temperature value produces a cooler temperature color? (8000 degrees is warmer than 2000 degrees)?????

[@JakeSitlani]

what software did you use to make this explainer video?

[@anamericanentrepreneur]

Nicely put together 👍

[@森下典樹]

Isn't "true white "5500k, and 5000k for galleries or art studios imitating sunny day north window light? And 4500k warmer imitating morning day light for eye sight protecting and for office or study?

[@Narsuitus]

Thanks for the tutorial. What is the correlation between Kelvin color temperature and nanometer lightwave frequency?

[@FabJammes]

Best WB tutorial for Kelvins. Thanks!!!

[@BTMovieSecondChannel]

This was extremely clear and helpful.

[@JacquelineDeelyPhotography]

A tricky and sometimes confusing subject very well explained!

[@parisrilveria1365]

Thank you very much this video was a big help in understanding white balance.

[@lensprotogo]

You are very welcome Paris!

[@quratulaind3168]

Thankyou! This was very helpful! If you could please make a live example of how color temperatures affect portraits, that'd be very awesome. It'll teach us better.

[@leoren5128]

You are a hero captain! Thank you so much for this video!

[@lensprotogo]

You are welcome Leo

[@arabindhk]

Really practical and helpful presentation. Thanks

[@voidwalkingcat]

Great job visualizing WB. It is just intuitive and easy to get the idea. I guess all I need is to go out and play with it. Thanks a lot

[@lensprotogo]

That is the best way to learn about it is just play and see what you like in different situations.

[@testpattern701]

Great explanation of color temperature. "Kelvin" is not a unit of measurement. Color temperature is measured in DEGREES on the Kelvin scale. It's like saying "the temperature outside is 75 DEGREES Fahrenheit".

[@isaaccarlton]

Thank you for this explanation, it was super helpful! I have a question: I want to shoot a short with the moonlight look. Would you recommend playing with WB to get a blue look in camera over a true accurate WB and then manipulating that image in the grade? Also, what is the use of using colored lights if you can manipulate normal lights in camera? Sorry for the long question :)

[@vladhardware5642]

That was simple and easy to understand.

[@RakeshParshotam]

Thx for the detailed explanation. I am currently taking photos at a nightclub. What settings should I apply on my Canon 700d for white balance

[@slizzardshroomer9666]

Best explanation I've seen.

Dude, amazing example!!! Thank you!!

[@PrimalEdge]

absolutely epic overview... groovy video! subbed

[@classzedits]

im new to camera (as in i started with my cellphone). been watching and have watched so many white balance tutorials in yt but this is the best. thank you for giving not only the numbers (kelvin) but also how they actually looked like through the lens. changed my setting from 5600 to 4500 because of this tutorial (i more often shoot at noght) looks better. i love it. very good tutorial this is.

[@pavankumar-xh5sp]

Finally! the last white balance explanation video i ever need

[@frubo_ssg]

Well explained and super helpful - thanks a lot.

[@MurrayFrost]

Greg, Thanks so much! I had an idea of WB, but this put so much more perspective on it! Love you guys! love renting your stuff!

[@MurrayFrost]

How about things you should know when shooting with red for the first time? what is the best starter lens (maybe 3 of them) what add ons you need to get it running for a professional shoot and so on. what are good settings to use. what the workflow looks like. I am looking to rent a raven, but need to know who you guys would use it and why. Just something I thought wasn't common on the internet.... Let me know if you guys are interested in showing something like that. :)

[@MurrayFrost]

AWESOME!

[@hwphotography1731]

Such a cool way to display the affects of shifting White balance. I was wondering why you had so many lights lined up lol. Would a candlelit scene appear light bright white light if you white-balanced your camera to “candle”? If so, why would anyone want to make candles look white? 🤷🏾‍♂️😁
