ERic - do you have the K-5? or above?
I shoot a lot of my ebay stuff in mixed fluor and daylight from window
and start with AWB - examine the pic and press WB to get the choices to
come up, then move the settings around til the screen looks like what I
see myself.. it isn't always spot on but it gets a lot closer .

If I'm going to be doing a lot of shooting in mixed daylight and fluorescent

temperature and shoot a few sample frames of a Color Checker chart as the light
shifts while I'm shooting my subjects. That way, at least the capture is
happening at a consistent setting and the corrections will be more or less
consistent from frame to frame. I can use the Color Checker sample shots to
output a few different camera calibration profiles using the Xrite Passport
software and try to accommodate the shifting that way too.
Thanks, Godfrey. Very helpful. Reassuring to know that I'm not alone.
Regarding the above, what' said Color Checker chart? And I don't understand
what you do with the sample frames. Nor what you do with camera calibration
profiles and the Xrite Passport software,
Thanks again,
