I am a GH5 user and I always bring a pocket-sized grey card then just use the "select white balance" feature, point it at the grey card then done!
you should make a youtube tutorial of 5 seconds saying this line. To the point !!!
Just filmed a video yesterday, all fancy, in S-Log3, 4K 24, on A7III, 1/50. Sadly, as a long time photographer, left AWB on, since I shoot RAW, and photos are photos. The camera was set on a tripod, I (the subject) was sat next to the window. The clouds outside were changing (but not much) throughout the 20 minutes that I was recording. Then in post, tried to swap places of different parts of the video - and it was such a terrible mess, even though the video was shot in a relatively controlled environment. It was the most amazing feeling that I can still get things wrong - and this humbling feeling is exactly what we sometimes need as creatives.
I love how you always speak for the viewer and offer an immediate response. It’s really effective. Also, I love that you finally featured the famous tree light!
Fantastically taught and such a smooth and articulate way of explaining ! Shot all my footage last week without this knowledge and everything looked too cool and I was outside at the beach! I am taking what I learned today to re-shoot! You rule !!
Simple, direct and impossible to misunderstand. A hug from Brazil
This was the third white balance for video tutorial that I watched today, and it was by far the most clear and helpful.
One of the best tutorials on white balance on youtube! Great video Matt! I usually end up switching between 3200-5600k which I know I should stop doing and use grey cards etc. So I avoid tungsten lamps looking too warm in daylight set situations.
This is the best white balance video i have watched on youtube.. i was aware of the colour temp chart but i never thought to think of it outside the box like you explained here!! Im so happy right now. I thought i needed a fancy camera which will do the magic tricks for me 🤦🏾♀️
For me, you are the best on UA-cam at explaining film making. I’ve learnt the most from you!
By far the best videos on UA-cam! Learned a lot from him, looking back I’m so glad I subscribed to his channel!!
I usually set manually. As with everything, practice makes perfect. Great presentation. Thanks.
Beautifully explained, Matt. Thank you.
Great video Matt, answered my questions beautifully!
Great way to explain everything perfect. You've got an organized structured brain. thank you
Killer tutorial, you really broke things down! Thanks!!! Matt!!!
I’ve literally been looking for where to manually put my color temp on my a6400, and thanks to you I now know. Thanks for the video!!
This is liked and added to my videography tip playlist! Thank you for making this easier to understand.
I really enjoy the way you explain things. Very helpful. Thanks 🙏
Subscribed. These videos are perfect. Love how you explain everything so clearly!
All these years and it has never clicked until what you said at 2:00. Huh. You’re the man!
Thank you for all of your videos Matt!!! Thanks to your recommendation, I got the CyberpowerPC--LOVE IT!!! I also know SO MUCH more about editing now, thanks to you, my friend.
Thanks, Matt! Simple and great tutorial.
Thank you, Matt....as always, this was very informative!

Instructions unclear. Set a campfire during wedding speeches
😂
Best White Balance explanation, Ever. Thank you so so much.
Im obsessed with your videos and personality:) thanks for making great videos! Subscribed.
Clearests explanation, ever, for a great recap - thanks 😁
Very well done, great instruction! 🙌
Really appreciate how you break it down. I follow a lot of different filmmakers, but only go to handful to really learn from. As an aspiring Videographer, when I get there, I will definitely shout you out! see you on the next one!
I typically use a white card on my FS5 ii but on my canon I typically set it manually. On my older work I used auto or those presets you mentioned. Good stuff Matt!
Fantastic! Thanks so much!
This was a great explanation, thank you
Matt, your skillful blend of examples and historical insights made a challenging topic clear and understandable, even for me with my dyslexia. I’m grateful for your effective and inclusive teaching style. Thank you!
Great great video!! Very easy to follow! TY

Loved that the "physicist with a great beard" photo was in black and white.
Great video, Matt!
Bravo, you made learning white balance easy!
Quick and to the point. Thank you!
Great explanation. Thank you!
I am a film student at Full Sail and I use the Sony FS5 camera. Your video helped me understand white balance so much more than the school did! Thank you for this video!
I Graduated there back in 2008 and back then celluloid film was still the standard. The instructors beat it into our head that video is inferior to film, and that film will always be the standard and that video will never be able to rival film. So when it came time to learn about video cameras, I didn't pay too much attention to the white balancing, grey cards, and color checkers. Last year I bought the A7S III which is my first "real" camera and I was so overwhelmed with all the stuff I had to learn. That being said, I still learned a lot of good stuff that can be applied to digital cinematography, and the school gave me a great perspective on the different roles on a "film set". Ever since Saw 2 came out, Darren Lynn Bousman has been that school's pride and joy, hopefully soon I can take that mantle.
Good video and information Matt
You’re seriously such a good teacher. Thanks for all the wisdom, you’re the man Matt!

Hello Matt Johnson, greetings from Germany. I like your video tutorials, thank you very much!
Thank you Matt
Great video - learned a lot
Apart from how awesome this guys videos are.. it’s further displaying how unbelievably intricate and designed the human eye is.
“The Feynman Technique: If You Can't Explain It To A 5-Year Old, You Don't Understand It. “…. That’s you Matt…you make it so simple to new bees to understand…. Seen so many confusing videos around….Thank you my little brother!!
Great summary. Had the exact problem with the first video I shot.
Beghine videographer here, ive been struggling with this and you've helped me with this video! Def following:D
Great Video. I use AWB if I'm in a one like setting. If i'm dealing with more than one light source I will set (K) for the main key light. Just need to practice more so when I'm not running and gunning.
great methaphores, great edit! :)
Great video
thank you this really helped me
very good teacher ^^
Now i understood the white balance . Thank u sir. Love from nepal
This was such a helpful video. Been on AWB and it has been a mess in post 😪
Thankyou sooo much
Grazie Matt!😊
I was so confused thanks a lot. I'm currently building a YT Setup and my skin looked so weird as I introduced an orange rim light. Thanks a lot!
I’ve been using awb as I just started and it’s indeed really difficult to color grade. Thanks for the info, switching to the other white balance options :-)!
This is helpful
Wow such great work you are doing. I like your style of teaching. Please make a video on vlogging setups / studio lighting
Hey Matt!! Great video thank you so much!! Do you happen to have an updated video for your picture profile for your sonys? Would love to know!
I completely understand white balance and feel there are pros and cons on both sides of the manual/auto debate. Personally I still prefer (the majority of the time) to use auto. Filming weddings solo you’ve got so much to remember - 3 to 4 cameras to set up, 3 to 4 different microphones/audio sources to set up, frame rate, shutter speed, aperture, iso, as well as positioning and ensuring the record limits on certain cameras don’t run out, battery life etc etc. Auto white balance - for me - does a good enough job on most occasions that it means it’s one less thing to worry about - it would be far more difficult to fix a completely wrong white balance in post that you’ve forgotten to change, than an auto white balance that the camera has got a little bit off. There’s also the fact that the colours from different lenses will vary slightly, and your footage will still likely need a bit of tweaking in post regardless. Another time I favour auto white balance is on the gimbal, if you are getting a moving shot going from indoor to outdoor, auto takes care of that change and let’s you focus on a steady shot and good composition. Finally, a multi camera set up may have cameras, as you’ve pointed out in this video, that the lighting is different based on the angle the camera is facing (one could be majority window lit while another angle majority bulb lit). In this situation again I feel auto is a safer bet in what is usually a very time restricted moment in a wedding.
It’s certainly a interesting and debatable topic - similar in some ways to auto iso. Which again I feel has plenty positives to it, as well as a few negatives.
Its not that difficult dude. Our eyes are wired to see in 5600 kelvin, just set your white balance that way for all cameras and you are ready to go.
You’re the best!
Awesome video! You are always my favorite! How do we set white balance for sunrise or sunset? For pre sunrise or post sunset? thank you so much
Matt: setting the white balance perfect for the light
Me: Trying to see on my little Sony screen if I pressed the REC button 😅
I used like a total noob auto, but after seeing this just realized how important is and also thanks for the short history lesson 🙏🏼 really nice vid
I needed to see this.... been shooting on auto. Definitely need to dial it in.
Good 👍 thanks 🙏
Before this video auto white balance but thanks to you I’m gonna start following your way thank you
Good information
matt you are awesome 😊😉
really good vid
tysm
Thanks for sharing Matt. really appreciate the use of b-roll to illustrate what you're saying when talking about the different Color Temps! Side note, Who's the 1 hater that disliked the video?! 😂
