The Golf was fun but the punto was so slow...
I've hardly seen any Corsa used for driving lessons here, it's mostly Peugot 206 (or was) and VW.

If we are shooting pictorial subjects, where the colour of the light may be part of the beauty of the scene, then Daylight is a good setting, or Shade or Cloudy if you prefer something warmer still.

for in camera use ONLY though ?? not to LR or ACR ?? right ?
Any ways for lens correction you need to know which lens is on it, the focal length you use if you use a zoom and the camera you used and all that is already recorded in the EXIF data, and so as far as i know no extra data is being giving to a RAW file if you've the corrections on.
But please prove me wrong

But whether there is a general bias against Pentax is open to argument.
I've read once review where more then one reviewer gave their opinion and i must say that that worked well.
I believe they tested the Kx against Nikon, Canon and Sony camera. One found the Kx the best and with the others it ended up in the second place twice and once in third place so it did quite well. Can't remember how the others did...

For editing Sony has some great software but haven't tried Adobe products yet though...

First time i hear about a White Balance Lens Hood you've a link?
Do you mean a lens cap maybe?
The problem with those is that they don't measure the white balance at the source so if the source is in a different light the white balance is still off, a gray card is probably the best tool and you can use that for your exposure as well.
