Re: custom white balance on G7x MKII

Are you talking about WB presets (Day Light, Shade, Cloudy...)? Those are still available, except in Auto mode. Just like the G12. Even the manual WB correction options remains the same.

Custom WB requires taking a picture of a grey card under whatever special lighting conditions you're shooting in. Not many record a custom WB unless they will be shooting frequently under that lighting. If I'm shooting in mixed lighting and want accurate colors, I include a WB card in a test shot then correct WB in post.
