Granted, I think there are only a handful of SB posters who use this camera. But I'll give it a shot anyway....
Has anyone else noticed that this camera does a poor job of setting a custom white balance at depth? I've brought down white and gray slates as well as taken readings from white sand. Every time the camera sets a wb that is way blue or green. My only other experience shooting underwater was with a Canon A590IS and it set wb at depth phenomenally better than the LX3. It's to the point where the wb is almost the same when left on daylight or cloudy. For the most part, I shoot with strobes, but it's frustrating when I want to shoot some natural light stills or video.
Does anyone have any tips?
