I don't know about "throw in," but I'm still toying with selling the 600 f/4




Throw in means "donate, in addition to the body".

I'm confused. Didn't you just say you shoot RAW + JPG? You've already got a RAW File in there. Do you have a way to send only the JPG out wirelessly while writing the RAW to the card?

I forgot you do the wireless tether thing.

Donation are supposed to go TO the Poorhouse, not from it

5600k works well for the AB lights. Auto wb will be all over the board and it is easier to start with it correct, even in raw

Thanks. I'll have to try it out.

Why would auto WB be all over? I assume it would just set for the ambient which, aside from some crazy lighting situations like Sodium or Mercury Vapor should be fairly constant.

I haven't noticed any wild variations, but I'll have to go back and look more closely now.

With my workflow, yes. I copy the RAW + JPG to my laptop, then transfer the JPGs to my viewing station. Within about 4 mintues I have a lot of backups on different media.

By all over the place, I think Julie means it will not be right.

Ah, that could be it. When I hear "all over" I think about indoor dog sport places and phase shift.

I mean not right. Your camera is choosing the wb and the ambient light is not the same as the strobe light

Got it. Thankfully, it is a simple one click fix but I'll definitely have to remember to set it manually. With my feeble mind, I'll probably forget to turn it back to Auto WB when needed
