The shots were taken under natural light coming in through my office window which has a couple of green patterned panes, hence the green tinge. The 6x4 paper is white but the A4 paper is slightly cream in colour.
1) Camera wb setting Auto temp shot 4800
Camera manual temp for setting N/A
2) Camera wb setting Tungsten temp shot 3000
Camera manual temp for setting 3000
3) Camera wb setting Flouresent temp shot 4000
Camera manual temp for setting 4200
4)Camera wb setting Flash temp shot 5700
Camera manual temp for setting 5400
5)Camera wb setting Cloudy temp shot 5450
Camera manual temp for setting 6000
6)Camera wb setting Shade temp shot 6800
Camera manual temp for setting 8000
7)Camera wb setting Manual Pre Set temp shot 5100
Camera manual temp for setting
The results speak for themselves. It seems to be correct that shots can be improved by not letting the camera stay on auto white balance and I for one will be attempting to remember to set the wb before I start shooting in future.
One other thing I did notice is that the histogram on the manual set wb shot seemed to be more evenly spread than the other shots. But there is a purple tinge in the darker areas in the top rh corner and bottom lh corner. The same tinge appears along the paper edge where the top photo lays across the second photo. You can only see that in the full res shot[img]here[/img].
Hope this little test is of some use to others.
