Perhaps looking back at this thread and the data that I posted there (not for the first time) for three different Sigma cams with two different daylight WB settings may soothe you a bit:

Don't shoot the amateur contributor, she's doing her best ...

Ah, yes, you wrote:

"the official Daylight WB of the SD14, the DP1 and the DP2 are 5,600K, 5,400K and 5,600K respectively, according to the manuals." Being old, I had forgotten that, duh.

All rather odd when CIE 'daylight' is more like 5500K, ho hum - but this is Foveonsville where stuff can change with the direction of the wind, which could be why Adobe stepped out of supporting Sigma cams quite a while back.
