With the latest/greatest versions of Lightroom CC, I've changed my
ways and I now have Auto-WB set on my cameras. Probably 50% of the
time it does better than any of the Lightroom WB settings. This is a
dramatic improvement because until the update where Adobe created the
new profiles, the in-camera WB was never usable.
Generally speaking, Lightroom's "Daylight" setting is far too blue.
The "Cloudy" is skewed in the green-magenta line (the shadow
adjustment in the converter profile helps sometimes) and "Auto" is far
too warm. It's particularly awful with the 6D and E-3 files. The E-1
and L1 files are actually pretty close with the Daylight setting and
only need a small bit of warm up.
There is one thing I'm not liking about the current Lightroom
processing, though. The "golden hour" (which is most of the day here)
causes white clouds to take on an alien orange color. It's like seeing
Donald Trump in every picture. I end up having to desaturate the
clouds.
HOWEVER, do understand that I'm pretty wicked with the sliders. I'm
cranking the volume to 11, so any faults are going to get amplified.
