Hi,
i am using ys d1 strobe. Most of the time i shoot with the 100 diffuser attached. What kelvin temprature should i use for the wb? I know someone who shoot with inon z240 and its diffuser and set it to 4100 Kelving and able to get that nice natural blue color.

i am shooting with rx100 . Any real diffrences with using awb? Or shooting in raw then adjust the wb photoshop?
 
The blue water is in the background so you need to choose your exposure so that the backgound is sufficiently lighted to get the blue color. The foreground is lighted bij the strobe, the background incl the blue water needs natural light. WB is used to compensate for the lack of red. Not critical for blue water.
