Hi All, I've been reading with interest the dialogue on AWB and CWB options. While there seems to be enough condescending "why the hell would you" type comments towards AWB to stop me asking the following, I'm going to anyway.
WB is probably the one issue I have left in the too hard basket since purchasing the 1Ds. I use AWB for most of my work and really only use the tungsten or flouro setting where needed for indoor shots. I've had no real problems with only occassionally casts (often blue at the racetrack) which I fix in PS later where necessary. It sounds like there might be a better solution out there though and having reread the chapter on CWB and PF WB settings this morning, I still have no idea what it is. The five step CWB procedure is certainly not something I have time for on location generally, or if it means to do this beforehand then call it up through the menu on location - why is that so different to what Canon have programmed into AWB ? And why is WB in natural light an issue with a digital sensor but not with film? I would appreciate hearing the logic behind these other WB options in simple laymans terms, and to hearing what steps you actually use on location to get the WB result you are looking for.
