When I have to do a custom white balance, which of course is only when shooting jpegs, I just use the grey card or a white card for that matter. If I don't like the results, I use the -3 +3 adjustments. It doesn't really mater what the Kelvin temp might be if the shots look good. The only time I
shoot jpegs is for virtual tours. But many of these involve complex
lighting: windows, tungsten, sometimes even some fluorescent. But the data
is irrelevant. Only the results matter.

Well, sure. But I don't want the data for the sake of the data. I want it so
I can enter it into the other wb setting on the camera.

To what end? To save the setting? I've found that unless the light source is controlled, color temperature is unique to a specific time and place.
