DJI Mini 5 Pro - White Balance settings tutorial

General Drone Discussion
1

White balance is one of the most overlooked drone settings.
In this short tutorial I cover:
• Why Auto WB causes colour shift
• Practical Kelvin values for different conditions
• A simple baseline for Sharpness and Noise Reduction
• And how white balance can be used creatively to change the mood of a scene
Filmed at Climping Beach with real-world examples.
Free printable guide included in the description.

Not much of that in indoor arenas where I did most of my work same goes for football stadiums under floodlights.

These youngsters don’t know how easy they have it now ;o)
