Well, I'm not sure I'd characterize it quite that way, but I develop deep, system-level software for a living, so I might have a somewhat unique perspective on it. :-) Personally, I'd say that it's more a problem of the camera not having enough information to correctly infer the appropriate WB in some cases. Yeah, the image is a big part of it, as is the metadata related to the image capture process, but they're not the whole story. But the bottom line is that when you set WB to AWB, you're specifically telling the camera you want it to guess at the actual WB. -- Thanks, DougF (KG4LMZ) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
