Hi Sandro, thanks for sharing.

Indeed auto does a very good job in most cases !

When i shoot people or indoor I use the ‘snapshot portrait’ and use AWB.

I do agree a white balance ‘ 50/50 AWB / AWB-W ‘ would be nice ..

what other settings do you use for people / indoor / low light ?

( i try to have 3 settings on C1 /C2 /C3 : landscape - outdoor - daytime street ( which uses the above fine detail setting ) / indoor - people - low light / sports - action. )

I have preset c1 for general photography woth Fv mode, single af single af point, c2 same of c1 but with awb(w) and c3 for action, with servo af with expanded af zone (1+8points) burst and shutter priority at 1/500... and i then programmed the lens ring to be exposure compensation and m-fn button to picture style, with 3 user presets, user1 auto 5,2,4,0,1,0, user2 auto 5,2,4,0,0,0 and user3 monochrome 5,2,4,3,y,n

I never found light optimizer to give useful improvements, except slightly raising the shadows at the expense of some contrast... but i prefer deep shadows and contrasty images

My mission is to use as much as possible the ooc jpegs, so other then checking the exposure, when the evf or the lcd shows me wrong colors with "default" c1, i rapidly switch between c2 or user2 picture style. If the colors are still off and i've no time to adjust K wb or a white balance shift ... it's monochrome time

All the above is still under study...
