a booonsun burner lol :) great explanation. White balance is doing my head in espesh when i go into a shady area and select shade the image just looks so orange, autowhite balance looks spot on though.

This is the easiest WB explanation I've ever heard.  Keep the tips coming!

[JoshiSubodh]

Thanks. Nice Video.

BTW, 0 degree Celsius = 273.15 kelvin.

[lmazereeuw]

thanks the thing with the chemistry helpt a lot understanding the blu!!

[SyphonFilterr]

Good basic video to learn for newbie like me :)

[peer1357860]

Great video DOM you explained well the different light attributes by merely using your flat, simplicity, NICE. I'm looking to gain mastery and awareness using magenta, blue etc, any vids on these would be great.

[valleystylez1]

awesome video, dude

[nuggetzor]

Dom - Thanks. I was never really clear on WB until now. Thank you very much.

[delsoul2003]

outstanding video, only one I found that explains for us beginners without missing any small details and in layman's terms.

[V3ryM3tal]

Great song choice mate!

Hi Dom, How acurate is to use a gray or white card to set up your WB?

[demonikodemoniko]

Tnx!

[fencore]

K = °C + 273,15

[vcbabis]

The absolute zero temperature is -273,16 degrees celcius.

[bigbeef20]

Great tips, now I'm going to have to check it out on my pentax

[Lai829]

i am learning so much from you! just watching ur vids! keep em coming!

[loganistan]

I am an amateur photographer that has been looking into buying a new DSLR camera. The information on your video was very helpful. Thanks a lot!

[slammindeejay]

what about using white/grey card to nail white balance & exposure?

[dombower]

@slammindeejay you have to take a white/gray card photo every time you change direction, every time a sun goes behind a cloud or behind a tree or starts to set, when you change from ambient to flash bla bla bla, it is handy but only if you are in a controled lighting situation like a studio. or outside with no change in weather

outstanding explanation good delivery and very informative,Thanks!

Fahrenheit is so lame, but we Americans have been so ingrained with miles, feet, gallons, inches, yards, and this temperature method, it's impossible to get away from it.

Fahrenheit is even wrong by it's own methodology: The dude who made it wanted 100 degrees to be the normal body temperature, but he had a fever when he took his own temp. So, instead of 100, it's 98.6.

What do you do? :D Great vid, Dom. I'll be messing with my white balance today.

[Belfson]

Great, thanks for this!

[anybizfinder]

Ok, I totally just posted a video response to your vide on white balancing...and not sure how but I did, so ignore it if you can!

[QuarterCrawl]

THANX!

[tlm1028yt]

Yea, we should have been on metric many years ago. Now we have to worry about both. Drives me nuts. Dom, keep videos coming. I never have used the K on my D200. I might try it. Actually, the automatic setting does a pretty good job. I do use the Expodisc sometimes.

Cheers

[lorikzzz]

The fuji looks like a Nikon

[dombower]

amazing isn't it

[lorikzzz]

LOL

[brt5470]

0 K is -273 C

[dombower]

By eck thats a bit chilly!

[brt5470]

Damn Straight, I think the closest we've gotten is like 0.00000000000000000000003 K at MIT.

I thought I'd add, I read that the colour relates to the temperature and colour of iron. It gets blue and eventually white as it hits 7000-8000k.

[yookiefooka]

@brt5470 you got it the other way around, 0 degree celsius is 273 kelvin

[brt5470]

@yookiefooka What you said is also true. I'm correct as well.

[RickBradRB1]

man alive you have been busy with your videos... good stuff...thank you dom. I really must add more stuff to my channel. time to put the video camera on charge.

[dombower]

girlfriend is away on holiday visiting family so got to spend my time some how, and cant go to the gym as legs are agony from the menshealth race on sunday

[lopezae33]

why does fahrenheit have to be "way off" always hating on the Americans. lol

[dombower]

hahahaha! its way off because freezing is not 0 degrees and boiling is not 100, and is fahrenheit american? cos with a name like that it sounds more german to me

[lopezae33]

its does sound german huh?? well what do you expect from a country formed by refugees. :-)) my people are indigenous to this country so who cares about its retarded "founding fathers"

[tadej172]

Does WB change with diferent lenses?

[dombower]

damn it! just when i think i must have covered everthing....

no white balance has no effect with lense it is all about how the sensor interprets the colours,

[tadej172]

LOL. I just asked a simple question, and I'm still getting lots of minuses.. what a strange world this is.

[thecreativegeek]

just gave you a + lol

[docadify]

Great....like usual.
