TECH SUPPORT Tips From Our Readers White Balancing: For a quick and dirty white-balance setting under indoor stadium lights, switch your lens to manual focus, cover its front element with a sheet of waxed paper, and aim the lens up at the ceiling lights. Now take a custom white balance reading. It’s not as accurate as using something like the X-Rite ColorChecker, but it will do in a pinch. Straight Horizon: To level the horizon in old versions of Adobe Photoshop (such as Photoshop 7, which I use), you can use the Ruler tool. Just draw a line across that part of the image you feel should be horizontal. Then click on Image > Rotate > Arbitrary. The program will show the exact number of degrees that it will rotate, either clockwise or counterclockwise—no guessing needed. Do you have Tech Support Question? Post it on our Facebook Page.
