[QUOTE="jephoto1006, post: 826476, member: 54413"] Ok then. In the manual it does make it seem like you can do this in either Photo or Video- section 4 of “Direct Measurement “ WB, says this: Position the white balance target (r) over a white or gray object and measure a value for preset manual white balance. [LIST] [*]Position the target (r) using the multi selector. [*]To measure white balance, press the shutter-release button all the way down or press J. White balance can be measured multiple times while direct measurement mode is in effect. [*]You can also position the target (r) and measure white balance by tapping the display. [*][I][B]****Target selection will not be available if an optional flash unit is attached. Frame the shot so that the white or gray reference object is in the center of the display.[/B][/I] [/LIST] Does this mean we can’t do a custom WB with flash? That is not good. 99% of the time I use flash is mixing with available light and often gelling the flash to get close to the ambient. I need to get good custom WB with flash. Also what’s considered “High speed capture”? [/QUOTE]
