How so Steve?
Does this mean if I shoot my happy snaps in RAW format there would be no need for a CWB of filter?

ps... found an explanation!
Raw files have not had while balance set. They are tagged with whatever the camera's setting was, (
either that which was manually set or via auto-white-balance), but the actual data has not been changed. This allows one to set any colour temperature and white balance one wishes
after the fact with no image degradation. It should be understood that once the file has been converted from the linear space and has had a gamma curve applied (such as in a JPG) white balance can no longer be properly done.
