I figured that when I left the D70s white balance on auto and

attached the SB-800 to the hotshoe, that the camera would detect the

flash and automatically adjust white balance to flash. After all, if

it doesn't then what's the point of auto? But as it turns out, it

does NOT adjust the white balance & my photos turn out blueish

unless i make a point of manually setting flash WB. Does this lack

of automation strike anyone else as underfeatured?
