[QUOTE="J-see, post: 403356, member: 31330"] I do everything the old fashioned way; manual. The cam is on a pod so the static part of the scene remains identical and the time in between my shots ensures the clouds, and the light cast on them, are entirely different. That's how I do the ISO. WB I do in post since that's much easier. The reason I test this is because the night skies of a single shot too often have a very limited color palette while in reality the light is in constant change and so are the colors. By enlarging the palette I try to artificially add some of that change into my shots. Here's one of those previous shots with auto-WB. As you see, the sky is very dull and even if I change the WB, it will remain rather limited color wise. That's one of the problems with night skies. During the day colors are not an issue but during the night and during one exposure, they too often come in one version. [ATTACH=CONFIG]133492._xfImport[/ATTACH] It's the same for that previous shot. Here's one of them normally processed. [ATTACH=CONFIG]133493._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
