White balance read and write

white balance is a way to fix the lighting in photos so that white looks like real white not yellowish. to do this you shine a white light on the camera so it can adjust. after that the camera will show a more natural white color instead of the yellow light from ceiling lights or other sources.

file formats

JPEG: Compresses the file right away, easy to view anywhere. HEIF: Light and high quality alternative to JPEG. TIFF: Great for editing because it’s uncompressed and keeps full detail. RAW: Big file but keeps all the camera’s details, good for editing. DNG: Works with good editing software, great for long-term use. PNG: Lossless compression, made in the 90s. GIF: Lossless like PNG but limited to 256 colors. BMP: High quality, perfect for printing. PSD: Lets you manage layers and convert to any format later.
