[QUOTE="randzman, post: 527632, member: 41551"] All the lights are the same bulbs. I read a bit more about white balance and the context of using a light blue card I noted before ... which was when you have a photo with a blue cast... is it correct that in such a case I could reset the white balance using a light blue card and the camera would then remove some blue (whatever is found on the card... which won't be the perfect amount that the photo had, but you'll be closer. What I don't understand is why you need to take a photo outside the camera, to Photoshop, and find the new 'correct' temperature to set the camera to.... why doesn't the camera have several factory photos and when you shoot a new white balance it lets you, interactively, adjust the built-in photos traits ... kelvin, RGBAmber, C/Brightness, etc... the camera screen is acting as Photoshop so you can get it right on the camera, HDMI a large display if you want, and there you go ... quick, easy accurate.
