A95 Manual White Balance and Dynamic Range

[Windplume]

I was reading in the dpreview.com review of the A95 what there are some problems on bright days with large ranges where colors get blown out, has anyone seen this under normal shooting conditions?

Also, how often do you use the Manual WB option?

The dynamic range problems are something that you will almost definitely run into if you're taking pictures on sunny days, but it's not something specific to the A95 - pretty much ALL digital cameras have this problem (even SLRs) ..
The manual WB option gets used often enough (this is on a Canon G5, not an A95, but it's the exact same thing...) .. but it's incredibly easy to use .. just point at something white and press 'Set'. I only ever have problems with strong tungsten lighting, in daylight/fluorescent indoors the Auto WB is just fine...
