I also asked in the past for a local white balance. There is a good example with capture one here: http://blog.phaseone.com/white-balance-compromises/
It is, of course, possible to get an appropriate result with some smart ans strick use of the existing tools. I've been at a workshop where capture one was available. I asked to see how it really works. The local white balance is really a nice tool. Regards Jean-Luc 2017-02-07 20:49 GMT+01:00 J.
