Which statement about primary sliders on the Color page is true?

• A. Kelvin is a primary slider.
• B. Tint is a primary slider.
• C. There is no Kelvin control in Primaries.
• D. Kelvin adjusts saturation.

Answer: (C)

On the Color page, primaries refer to broad tonal and color balance adjustments like Lift, Gamma, Gain, Offset, and the overall saturation within the Primaries group. Kelvin is a White Balance control that shifts the entire image’s color temperature—from cooler to warmer light—so it sits outside the Primaries set. Tint is also a White Balance control that tweaks the green–magenta cast, not a primary slider. Since Kelvin controls color temperature and not saturation or the global tonal channels, it isn’t part of the Primaries. That’s why the statement there is no Kelvin control in Primaries is the true one.
