Ive bought a webcam for home office and use it on teams. Unfortunately my home office/ gym has a yellow hue not apparent in real life (Caused by the flourescent batten light)

Teams has only background filters by default (Ie where it blurs your background into a spaceship, forest etc.)

Is there an easy way to get colour filters to reduce the yellow hue?

Depends on the camera, but most have camera setup software to change the colour balance etc.

Might need to download it.

Yep, film is definitely off smile I dont want to download extra software as its a corporate laptop, so I might take this opportunity to replace the flourescent batten with an LED one that is cool white or something. Thanks guys
