White balance refers to the effects color temperature and tint have in photographs. Different light sources emit varying color temperatures, ranging in a spectrum between orange and blue. Likewise ...

In professional studio photography, though, it’s more common to measure white balance in ‘color temperature’, which is measured in degrees Kelvin.

White balance The white balance control works by removing the unrealistic colour casts produced by different kinds of lighting. It is configured to ensure the white objects in a scene appear white in ...

As @MinutePhysics puts it: “On the lower end of the Kelvin scale, a small change in white balance leads to a big change in color”. That means if your white balance is off by, say, one or two ...

Colour balance does present us with a bigger challenge. The colours we see are the visible portion of the spectrum of light; different colours are represented by different wave lengths.

Little contribution will be of help here, I have an array of red, green, and blue 8-bit pixel values but these were recorded by a industrial camera set to a known color temperature of 5600K ...
