Canon Rebel XTI Question - Fluorescent Filters?
I bought a Canon Rebel XTI and I want to buy some filters. One to keep on my camera lens at all times to protect it, which I hear is what the UV filter doubles for. My question is about flourescent filters. I take a lot of pictures in flourescent light and hate the orange-ish/green-ish haze that flourescent light produces when I take pictures in color. Can the filter correct this problem? I read sometime back that flourescent filters only work on film cameras. Please help!
All DSLR's like the Rebel XTI have a feature called a white balance setting. Essentially you select the white balance based on the general lighting conditions (Sunlight, Incandescent, Fluorescent, Flash, Custom, etc.)
Instead of using a filter to color correct for lighting you simply adjust your white balance.
Oh, the Custom WB setting is used when you have a reference card that you can use by taking a picture of it.
For example, with my Nikon D70 I carry a small reference reflector (reference colors on 1 side, reflector on the other) card. The reference colors are white, black and 18% gray. The purpose of this card is to allow a camera to perform a custom white balance. I simply select the custom white balance setting and then take a picture of the pocket card. The camera automatically adjust the white balance using the known colors on the card.
You can also still use filters to do it like you're thinking but that would be significantly more cumbersome and complex a solution these days.
HTH.
