Stop right there. I've just (yesterday and today) been working on a project shot under fluorescent light. Various types. With various amounts of incandescent and daylight mixed in. The answer for me (for the white balance part alone) is "priceless". Throw in the low noise ISO 800 option (I shot ISO 400 film and it still wasn't really fast enough - and I hate ISO 800 film) and I'm sold. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
