Color Balance

Adjusting the intensity of the primary colors rendered in an image is a major tool for improving its looks.
Correcting the amount of red, green and blue can dramatically change a photo, making it darker or more filled with light, while highlighting certain elements from it.
So here is why professional photographers often use color balance to edit digital images. But this does not mean the process should be very difficult or reserved entirely to pros. On the contrary: correcting the color balance in one image or in a group of them can take no more than a few seconds when you use a simple and powerful image editing program such as reaConverter.

How to Adjust Color Balance for a Group of Images?

1. Open Images

Open one or more images that need color adjustments. You can easily drag-and-drop them into the reaConverter window, pick them one by one from your hard drive or add an entire folder.

2. Add Color Balance Action

Go to the Image editing tab, click on Add action, and then on Color Adjustments and Color Balance.

Now you can customize the amount of red, green and blue in the image in any way you like. The result can be easily seen on the right part of the window in real time, if you check the Preview button.

3. Save the Result

Review the Saving options you have and decide on the location of your corrected images. Before completing the operation, decide if you want to preserve or change the format of your images.

Finally, click the Convert button and your new images will be available in a few seconds.

Change color balance on your PC

The fast and easy way to edit color balance on your PC is to use reaConverter. The software runs completely offline, keeping your files safe and private.

Change color balance with command-line interface

You can also edit color balance of images using command-line tool, either manually or through automated scripts. reaConverter Pro includes a command-line tool called cons_rcp.exe — an advanced feature designed for professional use, available exclusively in the Pro edition.

Color Balance example:

cons_rcp.exe -s "C:\Path_to\input_file.jpg" -o "C:\Path_to\output_file.jpg" -rgb g10
