Recently got a Fuji S9600.

Somehow The Custom balance doesnt work that well....until i read in the manual "hold a piece of white paper in the sun" >.<

Tried using photoshop to add in photofilters...but result is no where near the real "outdoor" WB.

nono..i didnt do that white-paper thing, but its recommended to do so when you want to set custom white balance.

Somehow The custom I set turned out Blue...

Will try adjusting da hue+saturation tonite. Any other ways?

does the S9600 allow you to set the color temperature when you are chossing the WB?

Wahhh ... dunno what is Custom WB wanna teach others about WB? tongue.gif
Custom WB sets the WB in promptu during a shoot i.e the camera still adjusts the WB for you but closer to your shooting environment rather than just tembak only. For Custom WB you will have to take a shot for the camera to 'sample' before it adjusts itself for you. For Custom WB the camera makes a guess based on your sample shot, different from setting Kelvin where YOU set the colour temperature directly onto the camera, the camera dun care already, it assumes you're right.
