How are the White Balance Calibration sliders in the DNG Profile Editor related to the Temperature and Tint controls in Camera Raw and Lightroom?
The Temperature and Tint sliders in CR / LR adjust the white balance of a given image. In contrast, the White Balance Calibration sliders in PE are used to adjust how camera neutral values map to the Temperature and Tint sliders in CR / LR. This is useful when using infrared-modified cameras or photographing in extreme lighting conditions that would otherwise cause the white balance of the image to fall outside CR / LR’s standard range (2000 K to 50000 K temperature, -150 to +150 tint). See Tutorial 4 for details.
