Re: White Balance Problem
Read page 100 in your user manual. Explains setting a custom white balance.
Re: White Balance Problem
White balance can be adjusted on the PC if you shoot RAW.
Re: White Balance Problem
Before you start take a photo of a white piece of paper or a photo gray card. That way you can do an quick adjustment from the values you get of the gray card or the white paper, for all the photos you did take in that area.

True, but white balance doesn't needed to be adjusted in PP if you do a custom WB prior to shooting. It can also be adjusted in .jpg just not as easily.

Problem with white paper is that to the human eye it looks white. Often what we perceive as white isn't really white. A gray card or white card/target would be the better option.
Re: White Balance Problem
Just got back from Baker Photo in Yukon, OK. Bought one of their gray cards, and they showed me how to set the white balance using it. I had read the directions, but was not fully understanding the process. Oh well, the guy that helped me had to go to the Nikon website to determine the procedure also. Thanks to everyone for your replies.
