I'm having issues with getting the white balance and tint right in post production when I dont use the grey card.
Sometimes I shoot with the WB set to something like "Cloudy" or "Sunny" on my 5D M3. Since I shoot in RAW I know that I can correct the White Balance later in post but I seem to be having issues with getting it right manually. I use the "picker" in Lightroom but that also doesnt always work correctly.
I tried sliding the WB slider left and right until I am happy, then adjust the tint but when I export the image the color balance always seems to be a bit off, so it means I'm not getting it right when adjusting it manually.
My 27'' apple monitor is calibrated with Spyder5. This issue is very annoying as I tend to do some basic color correction in Lightroom and then move the image to Photoshop for editing further and with me not getting the WB right from the beginning usually results with a lot of tweaking in Photoshop after I do all retouching.
Does any one have a similar issue or suggestions about how to approach this?
