Auto White Balance (right) warms up the ship's interior, which was lit by incandescent light, but the Incandescent setting (left) captures all the tones as they really were, adding a feeling of depth to the scene.

 


Auto White Balance (rigth) can't correct for the fluorescent illumination. Fluorescent White Balance (left) is designed for exactly this kind of scene. Note the difference not only in the vegetables, but also in the white of the cloth.


Auto White Balance (right) produced a pleasing, balanced image, but the PRE (or white card) photo (left) is warmer, with whiter whites and an overall faithful rendition of the scene's colors. The white card reading balanced the scene's mixed lighting quite well.
