I was always under the impression that the white-balance setting does not have any effect on shooting RAW. But every now and then I hear photographers ask each other about their WB settings even though they are shooting RAW. So should I be concerned with this setting? A. The beauty of RAW capture is that you can make adjustments such as white balance after the fact, as well as create different renditions from the same picture file (see this month’s Software Workshop for a primer on RAW). Where the camera settings come into play is on the LCD monitor: To display a RAW image, the camera makes a small JPEG from the RAW file, using the camera settings for image adjustments. Some cameras let you see what different settings will do to the same file. And, if you use a camera manufacturer’s software to “cook” the RAW file, most of those programs will use the camera settings as the default—but you can always change them to your liking.
