I'm almost tempted to just set my Kelvin Balance to 5600 and be done with it.

I guess somewhere in the middle then.

Dublin,

Yes. Daylight is around 5200 and Cloudy about 6000.

You can adjust your WB on the fly beforehand by putting your camera in Live View, hitting your Q button, setting your WB in increments, and seeing the effects before you take your shot; but that almost requires a tripod.

Holding a camera at arms length for that long would be pretty tiring, I think.

I'm going to do a little testing with remote shooting while I sit in a lawn chair with my tablet or phone.
