Blame the pesky LED's and cam sensors response. It is NOT just a WB issue. We
had a free energy audit and they replaced my low W incandescent with warm but
lowish CRI LED's in the overhead chandelier. I just recently found some LED's
that might be acceptable though low W LED's with that base have been hard to
source. Often the non very high CRI warm LED's have very poor R9 values (even
negative) so not enough red and skin tones look sallow especially on a cam
sensor. (CRI usually includes R1-R8, but very high CRI LED's with good
phosphors often have OK R9) I have not bothered to fix the lights inertia
being what it is.

Warmish OK but Zombie look, not, Mike
