I stumbled across a bug in Aperture 3.5 … if I use the “Temperature and Tint” setting and set white balance with the eyedropper, the result is extremely green. If I use Natural Gray or Skin Tone … the WB achieved with the eye dropper is fine … if using T&T … the tint shifts to the extreme green side of the slider. The temperature holds pretty well, but the tint … not so much.
Anyone else see this problem? Please test it for yourself so I know if it may be something in my system or if we need to report it to Apple …
Yea I thought this was so bad That they would have a fix the next day. Sending in my bug report now.

Something I noticed today working on some images for a friend … the WB eyedropper works fine in Temp & Tint mode on jpeg images … seems it only has problems with RAW files …
Thanks Butch I just confirmed that. Ill update my notice to aperturefeedback@group.apple.com Is there another email to post bugs for Aperture?

Hi Butch,
Thought for a moment you guys were doing it wrong,
Tried out the eye dropper using temperature and tint
Sure enough, “I immediately joined the been movement”
had a play with the others, was quite impressed how well the skin tone worked,
Hope they don’t change that during the fix

Butch,
I just tried it and am getting the exact same results. Looks like someone dropped a plate of green jello over the entire image. The other two settings work fine.
I submitted a bug report … hope they address it quickly …
