    Dark skin color reflect less light.

    Imagine a world in which every picture of a white person came out with them looking olive green.

    And imagine the camera company - based out of the ultra-wealth Ethiopian tech sector that holds all the patents on the technology - putting out a PR brief that says “Nothing we can do. Human skin isn’t supposed to be that reflective.”

    Could this be adjusted for?

    Yes. But it would require people to acknowledge the problem and care enough to fix it.
