DSLR | Video Skills with Rich Harrington: Adorama Photography TV

By

AdoramaTV presents DSLR | Video Tips with Richard Harrington. In this episode, Rich shares techniques on how to manually calibrate your DSLR camera for proper white balance. Then, follow along as he gives you a quick look at how to use a 3-way color corrector tool to white balance in post-production.


Sometimes, using your video camera's auto white balance (AWB) option can become problematic. If there is a change in lighting over time, such as a cloud moving in front of the sun, it can cause the AWB to re-adjust during your shot. To avoid this, Rich Harrington demonstrates how to use white balance pre-sets and calibration tools to customize your shooting situation in this video produced exclusively for Adorama.

About The Author

Richard Harrington has had a long relationship with media. When he was seven, he was grounded for using magnets to rearrange the picture tube on the family’s 13-inch color TV (it works but don’t try it). He has since gone on to many more interesting adventures.

Very helpful tutorial, Rich. I'm hoping I can do this with my Panasonic GH2, as I just sold my Nikon!
