This light can be anything from the sun flooding in through a window to the light from a tiny candle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The way that available light varies in colour and intensity can make it tricky to record correctly. For instance, if not recorded in the right way, colours can seem unnatural and the image may be lighter or darker than intended. But this is where your FUJIFILM X Series camera comes in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your X Series camera is a sophisticated tool that will give you stunning results, but when it comes to tricky lighting conditions, a few easy steps will make sure your pictures look as natural as possible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full limit-width\"><img data-preload-after-window-load=\"preload\" data-preload-delay=\"300\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"862\" height=\"1293\" src=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=862&#038;height=1293\" alt=\"\" class=\" wp-image-359426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=862 862w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=200&amp;height=300 200w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=683&amp;height=1024 683w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=768&amp;height=1152 768w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=365&amp;height=548 365w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=600&amp;height=900 600w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=717&amp;height=1076 717w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=390&amp;height=585 390w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=563&amp;height=845 563w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=131&amp;height=197 131w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=400&amp;height=600 400w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=355&amp;height=533 355w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=306&amp;height=459 306w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=183&amp;height=275 183w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=653&amp;height=980 653w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VIKA0133.jpg?width=480&amp;height=720 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 862px) 100vw, 862px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/>\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo \u00a9 Victoria Wright<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What You See Is What You Get<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Using your camera\u2019s electronic viewfinder, or the main LCD screen, is a real benefit when it comes to working with available light. It gives you a completely accurate view of how the picture will be when you hit the shutter, so there\u2019s no more guesswork like when you\u2019re making images with a DSLR. Trust what you see, because\u00a0that\u2019s how the picture is going to turn out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any changes you make to the exposure \u2013 for instance using exposure compensation or changing the white balance \u2013 will be visible right there in front of your eyes. This means you can get the picture exactly as you want it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An electronic viewfinder has other benefits, too. You can add a live histogram to the display, showing how bright or dark the image you\u2019ll make is. To add a live histogram, just follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"block-image-slider image-slider is-style-learning-centre wp-block-fujifilm-image-slider\">\n\t<div

And the photographer\u2019s secret weapon for that is ISO! Unlike in the days of film, where you\u2019d need to change a whole roll of film to adjust the sensitivity, your camera\u2019s ISO setting can be changed at will, according to the light levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even better, if you set the ISO to Auto, you can let it adjust automatically, either increasing or decreasing depending on the light levels and ensuring you get a good exposure every time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Worried about the ISO going too high? Don\u2019t be. Not only can you limit the maximum ISO used in Auto mode, you\u2019ll be surprised at how good the images look, even at settings like 3200 and 6400. Here\u2019s how to set up Auto ISO:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s more, you can set a minimum shutter speed with the Auto ISO. This means it won\u2019t drop below that setting, so if you need extra sharpness \u2013 say, when photographing a moving subject indoors \u2013 all you need to do is tell the camera to do it! Here\u2019s how you set it on your camera:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that control over Auto ISO is only available in the Program, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, or Manual modes. In other options, the camera uses Auto ISO automatically:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"block-image-slider image-slider is-style-learning-centre wp-block-fujifilm-image-slider\">\n\t<div

We suggest you set this to a low setting, like ISO 200 or 400.<\/li>\n<li><strong>MAX SENSITIVITY<\/strong> \u2013 this is the highest ISO the camera will use. The setting you use here will depend on how much digital noise you\u2019re willing to see in the image. The higher the ISO, the more there will be. Try shooting lots of frames at different ISOs to see the maximum that works for you, then dial in that number.<\/li>\n<li><strong>MIN SHUTTER SPEED<\/strong> \u2013 this is the lowest shutter speed the camera will use. The shutter speed you use here should be one where you can confidently take a picture without it being blurred by camera shake \u2013 the vibration that\u2019s noticeable in images at slower speeds. Camera shake depends on a lot of factors, like your shooting technique and the focal length of the lens you\u2019re using. Again, take some test shots to see what\u2019s best for you, then dial in the setting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use a Reflector<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Just because available light can\u2019t be increased or decreased in intensity, you can still modify it to your heart\u2019s desire. Modification simply means changing the way the light is filtered or directed, and this is exactly what you\u2019d do if you were working with flash or LED lights, so it makes sense to do the same. There are simple ways to do it, and their effect is instant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full limit-width\"><img data-preload-after-window-load=\"preload\" data-preload-delay=\"300\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"862\" height=\"1293\" src=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=862&#038;height=1293\" alt=\"\" class=\" wp-image-359433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=862 862w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=200&amp;height=300 200w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=683&amp;height=1024 683w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=768&amp;height=1152 768w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=365&amp;height=548 365w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=600&amp;height=900 600w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=717&amp;height=1076 717w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=390&amp;height=585 390w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=563&amp;height=845 563w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=131&amp;height=197 131w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=400&amp;height=600 400w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=355&amp;height=533 355w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=306&amp;height=459 306w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=183&amp;height=275 183w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=653&amp;height=980 653w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_20170124-DSCF1896-2.jpg?width=480&amp;height=720 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 862px) 100vw, 862px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/>\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo \u00a9 Victoria Wright<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Say you\u2019re making a portrait by a window. Even on a cloudy day, you may find that part of your subject\u2019s face is in shadow. A reflector can help here. If you don\u2019t have a purpose-made reflector, just use a large sheet of white card or paper and hold it up towards your subject. As light bounces back from it, it will fill in shadows and lower the contrast for a more flattering effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also diffuse and shape available light. Using the same window-lit portrait as an example, why not try adding a fine net curtain or voile over the window to soften the light? Another option is to draw the curtains slightly to limit the spill and create more shadow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cJust because available light can\u2019t be increased or decreased in intensity, you can still modify it to your heart\u2019s desire\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full limit-width\"><img data-preload-after-window-load=\"preload\" data-preload-delay=\"300\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"862\" height=\"1293\" src=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=862&#038;height=1293\" alt=\"\" class=\" wp-image-359434\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=862 862w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=200&amp;height=300 200w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=683&amp;height=1024 683w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=768&amp;height=1152 768w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=365&amp;height=548 365w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=600&amp;height=900 600w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=717&amp;height=1076 717w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=390&amp;height=585 390w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=563&amp;height=845 563w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=131&amp;height=197 131w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=400&amp;height=600 400w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=355&amp;height=533 355w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=306&amp;height=459 306w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=183&amp;height=275 183w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=653&amp;height=980 653w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW2.jpg?width=480&amp;height=720 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 862px) 100vw, 862px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/>\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo \u00a9 Victoria Wright<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Open up to Light<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To give yourself the maximum chance of success in all sorts of available lighting conditions, and when light levels are low, it\u2019s a good idea to choose fast lenses. A \u2018fast\u2019 lens is one that has a wide maximum aperture, shown by the low f-stops in their names. A wide maximum aperture means you can photograph more easily when it\u2019s dark, and it will also give great subject separation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The X Series has plenty of options. Try the FUJINON XF18mmF2 R if you need a wide-angle approach, such as for interiors or portraits where the subject\u2019s location is important to the story. The same goes for the XF35mmF1.4 R, which gives a view close to that of the human eye. If you\u2019re photographing small subjects and close-ups, like food, flowers, or even pets, try the XF60mmF2.4 R Macro. It\u2019s a good choice for portraits, but the undisputed master there is the XF56mmF1.2 R, which can make images in very low light. And if you want a great zoom lens for available light, try the XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR, which can be used for almost any photographic subject and in any light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full limit-width\"><img data-preload-after-window-load=\"preload\" data-preload-delay=\"300\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"862\" height=\"1207\" src=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=862&#038;height=1207\" alt=\"\" class=\" wp-image-359435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=862 862w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=214&amp;height=300 214w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=731&amp;height=1024 731w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=768&amp;height=1075 768w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=365&amp;height=511 365w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=600&amp;height=840 600w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=717&amp;height=1004 717w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=603&amp;height=845 603w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=141&amp;height=197 141w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=429&amp;height=600 429w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=381&amp;height=533 381w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=328&amp;height=459 328w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=196&amp;height=275 196w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=700&amp;height=980 700w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_PrintShow_VW17.jpg?width=400&amp;height=560 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 862px) 100vw, 862px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/>\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo \u00a9 Victoria Wright<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pick the Right White Balance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Different light sources give different colour tones in photos, and the white balance setting (WB) is there to help remove the unwanted ones. Your own eye naturally adapts to this, but a camera needs some help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, when making portraits indoors with regular room lighting, or photographing food in a dimly lit location, like a restaurant or bar, images can appear very warm and orange if you\u2019re shooting in on the wrong setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full limit-width\"><img data-preload-after-window-load=\"preload\" data-preload-delay=\"300\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"862\" height=\"1290\" src=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=862&#038;height=1290\" alt=\"\" class=\" wp-image-359436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=862 862w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=200&amp;height=300 200w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=684&amp;height=1024 684w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=768&amp;height=1149 768w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=365&amp;height=546 365w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=600&amp;height=898 600w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=717&amp;height=1073 717w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=390&amp;height=585 390w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=565&amp;height=845 565w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=132&amp;height=197 132w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=401&amp;height=600 401w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=356&amp;height=533 356w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=307&amp;height=459 307w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=184&amp;height=275 184w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=655&amp;height=980 655w, https:\/\/fujifilm-x.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/LEARNING_CENTRE_VW_Fujifilm16.jpg?width=400&amp;height=599 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 862px) 100vw, 862px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/>\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo \u00a9 Victoria Wright<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To counteract this, try switching your white balance to Incandescent\/Tungsten. This will cool down the image for a more pleasing and natural look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To experiment with white balance, press MENU OK and, under IMAGE QUALITY SETTING, scroll down to WHITE BALANCE, press OK (or scroll to the right) for multiple settings. You\u2019ll then be able to move through the different white balance options and see on the screen which looks best. You can also quickly access white balance through the Q Menu via the Q button on the camera body. On some X Series cameras white balance settings also have a default shortcut which is the right directional (d-pad) arrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the most natural results, choose the white balance that suits the ambient lighting you\u2019re in, or stick to Auto. Most of the time, Auto will get it spot on. But remember you can also change the setting to warm up or cool down a picture for a fun, creative effect!<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How your FUJIFILM camera and some simple techniques can help you get great results<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":181,"featured_media":359437,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"subheading":"Master available light and get superb photos wherever you are"},"content-category":[],"content-level":[],"class_list":["post-359438","learning-centre","type-learning-centre","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"pp_statuses_selecting_workflow":false,"pp_workflow_action":"current","pp_status_selection":"publish","acf":[],"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fujifilm-x.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/learning-centre\/359438","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fujifilm-x.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/learning-centre"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fujifilm-x.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/learning-centre"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fujifilm-x.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/181"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fujifilm-x.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/359437"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fujifilm-x.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=359438"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"content-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fujifilm-x.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-category?post=359438"},{"taxonomy":"content-level","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fujifilm-x.com\/en-gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-level?post=359438"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
