[B]No matter the lighting.[/B] You can have 20k blue actinics and still get true colors and pure whites as long as you tell the camera what true white is under that lighting by setting the WB. The auto WB feature on digital cameras works ok (adequate but still not right) outside. It's worthless indoors under artificial light. Be sure to change whenever the lighting changes. I do like that proof Ike. They look pretty rough circulated but the proofs are a little more pleasing.[/QUOTE]
