Understanding White Balance:
The White Balance (WB) function removes unrealistic colour
casts, so that objects which appear white are rendered white in
your photo. Proper white balance has to take into account the
“colour temperature” of a light source, which refers to the relative
warmth or coolness of white light produced by the light source.
