Zusammenfassung:	This document describes methods and systems for a hybrid white balance, HWB, mode (114), which is a hybrid of automatic and manual WB modes, in a camera system (104) of an electronic device (102). The HWB mode may provide options for a user to select a WB setting, via a camera user interface (118) in a live-preview mode (110), along a continuous WB-adjustment range. In this way, the user's desired color can be applied with respect to images or video captured by the camera system. The camera UI includes a manual WB control (112) to manually adjust the white balance. A WB module (108) determines target WB gains corresponding to the manual WB control relative to an initial automatic WB decision for a current frame displayed in the live-preview mode of the camera application. In aspects, a look-up-table correlating to the manual WB control is used to compute the target WB gains.
