Over the past week my wife and I have been playing with our cameras. Mostly aimed at getting better night shots like star trails and full Milky Way shots. I've even gone so far as to buy another Nikon DSLR (used) just because it can do 30 second exposures and has a 'bulb' setting. My regular Nikon P900 can only do 2 seconds and has no bulb setting.

But in playing with my P900 I found it has a 'programmable' white balance. So I pointed it at my DT and took a photo using the 'standard' settings, then let the camera do it's own white balance and got this second shot without any yellow filter.

This was all blue leds and the camera set for 'normal' photos.

This is the same all blue leds view, but I let the camera decide what white balance to use.

The more I use this camera, the more amazed I am it what it is capable of doing!
 
It's a great camera as long as your not doing a lot of really slow exposure work. These are 3 photos I took standing in the same spot in the parking lot with the camera on a tripod.
