Adding photos to change the white balance

When I add photos in Lightroom 3.2 from my hard drive, thumbnails have the original white balance, but imported and all images have a yellow tint.  My develop settings are set to None.

It is difficult to understand the details that you have given to date, what is the problem. From my experience, there are three possible reasons:

1. corrupt monitor profile. The fact that the photos seem to 'well in Windows' does not mean that this reason may be excluded. Most of the applications in Windows are not color management and cannot be overturned by a screen maybe corrupt profile. And even if they are, they might not behave in the same way as Lightroom with some of the ICC v4 profiles.

To prove that this is not a matter of profile, make sure you remove the monitor profile form display properties or replace it with along with the sRGB profile. Or, after a shot of creen tinted yellow to image in the development with the visible histogram module. If the historgram has the yellow tint also, then - it's profile.

2. develop predefined import or custom default to develop. Check if you do not apply a develop preset import, or if you have applied a default of custom development. Select an affected image that has not been adjusten in Deleop somehow (the + / badge is missing on the thumbnail) and check each slider on each Panel is equal to ZERO or to the default position. Check if wihte balance is set to "As shot" rather than "Custom".

3 Lightroom rendering is very different from your camera. Yet one thing that's confusing beginners is how Lightroom rendering is very different from what they see on the LCD screen of the camera or camera previews incorporated which appear briefly after importation, before Lightroom manages to make its own version of the RAW file. I guess that is not the case here, since you say you are having the same problems of JPEG files. But, just in case where, thanks to upload a file raw for us to consider here.

  • Lightroom automatically changing the white balance of the "as shot".

    Suddenly, my lightroom is changing "as shot" white balance to "custom" on the set of my RAW files.

    often, there is no real change in the balance of whites, etiquette only. but in about 10% of cases the white balance itself changes.

    clues? Thank you

    Trash the LR preferences file. It will be rebuilt the next time you open LR.

  • picture change the white balance that has been implemented in the device after its import in lightroom 5

    My pictures change the balance of whites and the global settings that have been implemented in the unit after its import in lightroom 5. Met someone with something like that? Thanks to you all.

    Screen 1 - this is what it looks like right after the import. The white balance is correct and just need a few changes.


    Screen 2 - However, In a few seconds it turns into this by itself. This can also happen when editing is finished, if I remove the image in Lightroom.

    Screen 3 - in order to restore it to a certain extent I have to select the predefined filter called 'Zero '.

    That means that you have inadvertently applied a preset import to have checked in the preferences of your Auto adjustments:

  • Sunrise/sunset and the White Balance

    I have a question about the automatic substitution of the White Balance when shooting sunrises and sunsets. A few days ago I got my first DSLR, the EOS 5 d Mk III. "I know that triangle ISO after the filming of the movie on my Canon a-1 I bought 34 years ago that still works). However, this white balance thing is a fourth dimension. Films are balanced to the light of day and the ISO is also dictation. To photograph a sunrise or a sunset, for me, it makes sense to adjust the balance of whites to 5200 Kelvin (daylight). I received a response from a camera club member who said that his pictures were all in the 5000 range. Others said ' Shoot in RAW and fix it in post processing. The second answer to 'fix later' just doesn't ring my Bell. What do things right the first time? Can I set up the white light of the day or a balance other setting? I can experiment always change the white balance; After all, I do not lose film. Here is a series of sunrises that I took using Kodak Portra 400, - 2/3 stop, on my Canon a-1. http://www.Flickr.com/photos/ralphhightower/sets/72157633079358301/ Thank you, Ralph

    5200 dawn at 09:00 and 15:00 at the sunset, says Bruce Dorn. It takes great pictures!

    3 white

    4 black

    Instead, I get

    2 fill light

    3 black

    As shown below.

    Why are there differences in the option? Is it because it is a trial version? Someone, please help me.

    Thank you

    Scroll the camera Calibration Panel. Choose process: 2012 for the image. The reason why you do not see the sliders, it is that the image is currently using an older process, an earlier version of Lightroom.

    Possibly, you have made changes to your 'by default develop settings'. The default WB in Lightroom should be "under the shot" to view this selection has recently imported a file raw in the develop Module, click history in the left panel, click on the first import. (see screen capture) and then see what settings have been applied to import for the white balance it must be 'in the know '.

  • Canon 5 d Mark ii Images with the value of the white balance fixed. When they are imported into Lightroom, the value is different.

    If I take a shot with the fixed value of 5200K WB (5 d Mark ii) and import into LR 2015.2.1, happens to 4850K. No presets or applied adjustments.

    No idea why? How can I solve this problem?

    All raw converters use four multipliers of white balance RGGB tinted and embedded in the raw file EXIF data to set the white balance and 'calculate' the temperature values displayed inside the module development LR WB.

    Scroll down to the "White Balance" section of the DCRAW tutorial PDF here: GUILLERMO LUIJK > TUTORIALS > DCRAW TUTORIAL it's all so raw converters all the rest of the white raw file and 'calculate' the temperature and tint values.

    Here is a Canon 5 d MKII CR2 file with the White Balance adjustment 'in the know' behind closed doors:

    (Data EXIF Maker Notes)

    The setting "As Shot" WB in LR shows a Temp of 4800 reading, which should produce a slight visual difference that the planned in-camera closed 5134 parameter, correct?

    However, with the LR settings file, "As Shot" above the white balance CR2 is the JPEG file in camera perfectly on my Canon 5 d MKII (raw + JPEG file format). It's just that Temp readings do not, because they are "calculated" four RGGB multipliers. Each raw (LR, opening, C1) converter will probably show the values of temperature and tint different, since they are derived by using "reverse engineering" of the manufacturer of exclusive camera raw data structure and camera sensor response file.

    Keep in mind that the spectral response of the camera is affected by changes in batch. A Canon 5 d MKII body can produce slightly different WB as one another using the same exact settings. Rather than depend on private clos or LR presets use a good white balance card or the ColorChecker Passport to 'calibrate' LR white balance settings standard shooting conditions (daylight, cloudy, Flash, etc.). For critical projects draw card of the white balance at least once for each unique lighting condition. You can then determine the correct inside the LR setting and settings of synchronization of the World Bank through all the images taken with this specific lighting.

  • the white balance bug?

    Hello

    When I try to change "color" to the White Balance in a negative number, the two values change simultaneously in 5.001 and + 10.
    Even when I only change the tint and not to touch "temp".

    For example:


    First screenshot: the real settings

    first.jpg

    Second: to change the hue

    second.jpg

    Last: the new settings when I hit "enter".

    Both values change in 5001 and + 10

    last.jpg


    My computers, MB pro 13 "and 15", both the same problems.
    All updates made.

    Y at - it a fix for this annoying problem?

    In this forum, I saw a reference to a "negative number" problem-English installs. However, I don't remember the context of the problem. However, this might give you something to go for.

  • Adjustment of the white balance

    When you select a neutral grey target with the white balance tool, are the RGB values on the values of magnifying glass on average according to the scale of the magnifying glass? Then, the adjustment of the white balance done with this tool is on average to the pixels located under the microscope?

    You can test it for yourself.

    Zoom in on part of the image.

    White balance in hit W to get the tool.

    Click on a place for WB

    W success once again (unless you have set other autodismiss) wise

    Use your mouse scroll wheel to change size of the Magnifier and click again on the same pixel.

    The World Bank changes a little each time.

  • Signs of adjustment for exposure and the white balance disappeared

    I use Lr 5.3 to adjust some RAW images.  My develop pane is now missing the pane for the white balance, hue and also the pane exposure, contrast, highlights etc. adjustments.  I don't know how this happened or how to restore them.  I use an iMac.

  • How to define the details of the White Balance metadata Bridge Cs6 shot with 5 d MarkIII?

    Thanks for any imput

    You can't get this info in a Board-contact, nor is it easy to get other then look at the setting of the device you used to shoot files. Maybe it's somewhere hidden deep in the exif data, but I can't find it with the exact number.

    Shooting Raw these WB figures do not apply because you can adjust the color temperature and tint to what you want. Taken jpeg, your options are limited due to the fact that the raw data is already processed and the evolution of the effects of temperature and color of the entire image.

    Try to shoot a Raw and jpeg together from the same scene. The one with the light of day and the other with artificial light conditions. (personally, I put my WB set closed at 5,500 but with the auto settings, you can also see the difference) Try to fix the jpeg and Raw file in ACR and see what I mean.

    And to be honest, if your instructor at the College would like to have what he should tell you also why he wants to and how you can put it back...

  • The imported images are given 'flash' like the white balance

    Given that I've implemented LR3 and played among others with presets, all of my (RAW) images to import are transformed to the white balance 'flash', as stated in the right column of the library and as can be seen in the picture.

    The images out of the camera with a wb-info than that set to the camera during the filming of the picture, so no problem with the camera. So I suspected a few preset, but impossible to find. Then I imported the Photoshop 4 files and elements, and exactly the same thing happens: they immediately convert to the flash WB. Yes, there is a settings file that is shared by all three programs?

    I checked the same files on my lap - top with LR3 and there LR shows the WB settings that I put on my camera. so the problem is with the settings on my PC.

    Someone has an idea how to get rid of this setting?

    Rob

    Rob,

    Could you define a default camera containing Flash WB by chance at a given time. In the LR develop Module, choose expand/Set Default Settings and click 'Restore Default Settings Adobe'. If you used other default settings applied consciously (as a non-standard camera profile), you will need to give them.

  • New to RAW, the question of the white balance

    I have been using Lightroom for years, but with my camera, display JPG images only. I started now work with my D90 RAW (NEF) files recently and has difficulty from beginner.

    LR 2.6, Mac OSX 10.5.8, iMac 24 "2.8 GHz

    The problem which brings me here is that I just did a shoot without setting a white balance. Shot JPG & NAVE and I see that Lightroom is extrapolating values AWB, that the camera is brought on the NEF files "As Shot". For a series of similar images, I found a white balance that seems to work. I set on my picture selected, shift-select the rest and try to SYNCHRONIZE the balance of whites for the other images.

    Do not. World Bank of rest "As Shot" for the other images, and in every sense, following the camera. Does not help items synchronized to integrate "treatment (color).

    How can you "synchronize" the white balance with NEF files, please?

    Thanks in advance.

    When using the sync function and you select an image that the WB is under the gun and copy this to other images it will copy 'under the gun' for the other images not the real parameters of Kelvin of the first image. It is as expected. You make a slight modification to the image that you copy so that it is now a custom setting, and then synchronize with the other image that you want to apply the new settings.
