Nikon camera settings - White Balance

White balance is probably the most critical in-camera setting, especially when using JPEG workflow. If you set white balance incorrectly, you could have unnaturally blue or orange images. An advantage of shooting raw is that you can adjust WB after the fact very easily. However, if your WB is extremely different than what the “correct” value should be, it will make working with your images more challenging, even in raw.

If you want extremely accurate white balance, get an 18% gray card and include it in the first frame you shoot. You can use that gray card image later on in Capture NX to really nail white balance .

Summary

Set white balance to Auto -1, which is a slightly “warmer” setting than just plain Auto.
