Frequently Asked Questions
What is color temperature in photography?
Color temperature refers to the warmth or coolness of light, measured in Kelvin. Warm light (lower K) has more yellow/orange tones, while cool light (higher K) has more blue tones. This tool simulates adjusting white balance.
What's the difference between Temperature and Tint?
Temperature adjusts the blue-to-yellow balance (warm vs cool). Tint adjusts the green-to-magenta balance, which helps correct color casts from different lighting conditions.
Can I use this for white balance correction?
Yes! If your photo has a color cast (too blue or too yellow), move the temperature slider in the opposite direction to neutralize it. Use tint to fix green or magenta casts.
Is this tool free?
Yes, completely free! No registration required, all processing happens in your browser locally.
