How do you correct white balance in the Color page?

• A. Use the Temperature controls in the Edit page.
• B. Use the Tint controls only.
• C. Use the Temperature and Tint controls in the Color wheels to neutralize color casts, using scopes to verify.
• D. White balance cannot be adjusted in the Color page.

Answer: (C)

White balance is about removing color casts so whites and grays read neutrally. In the Color page you fix this by adjusting Temperature and Tint on the color wheels. Temperature shifts toward blue or yellow, while Tint shifts toward green or magenta. Using both lets you neutralize the overall cast from the lighting. As you tweak, verify with scopes—the waveform helps ensure correct luminance and the vectorscope shows color balance, so whites and grays stay neutral and skin tones look natural. This workflow leverages the dedicated white balance controls on the Color page for an accurate result; relying on Tint alone won’t fully correct the cast, and the Edit page isn’t where you perform primary white balance adjustments.
