A/ Candle light is nice candle light so use if for it's effect and don't sweat the soft nice light it creates. B/ It isn't white light so once again don't sweat it, use it! C/ Working digital just hit AWB button and let the camera take care of it. Or if you're using Lightroom click Auto and it'll be as close as you need considering you are not using a white light source and enjoy the beautiful warm feeling candle light creates! Now see how easy that was. :-) Hey your welcome! :-) ted -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Matthew Hunt Sent: Tuesday, December 25, 2007 2:12 PM To: 'Leica Users Group' Subject: RE: [Leica] IMG: daughter by candle light Nice, what do you do for White Balance which is challenging for candles? A book said set at 2500K but red candles still look pink at this setting.
