[...] it is slightly broken and 6500k in a corona light is actually tinted magenta. Using direct input and setting it to 255 white yields an accurate result if using 6500k in the VFB [...]

Is this confirmed (intentional) behavior? I have seen the other posts about this (re: 6500k white and pink plane lights), but I could not tell whether there was some consensus regarding the feature.

For correct white balance (including light color adjustments with Light Mix), the recommended approach is, in fact, to set the light color to 255, 255, 255 - not 6500k - and leave the VFB color temperature at 6500k?


Confirmed bug. No timeline for a fix. Only an issue with corona lights when setting the colour through the kelvin spinner.

I could be misunderstanding, but this strikes me as a pretty significant question mark(?) I suppose it's not that big of a deal because you can just switch to direct color(?)

Yeah direct colour works fine.
