P: Nikon Z 6, Canon EOS Rebel T7, 1500D, 2000D Camera Profiles Have Incorrect White Balance Settings

The Canon EOS Rebel T7, 1500D, 2000D (same exact model with different country names) camera profiles render properly using the camera's 'As Shot' white balance settings, but display a very high and incorrect Tint value in the LR 8.2.1 Basic panel. In addition when using any of the Basic panel WB presets (Auto, Daylight, Cloudy, Shade, Tungsten, etc.) set for the actual shooting lighting condition the image takes on a strong yellow-green tint shift.

Will both the Canon EOS Rebel T7, 1500D, 2000D and Nikon 'image overlay' NEF file WB issues be fixed. Just clarifying for expectations. Thanks Rikk!

Should be fixed in the next version of Camera Raw/Lightroom.

Agreed. The below video on YouTube of a Nikon D750 image overlay NEF file appears to be supported in LR Classic, but with incorrect WB values same as yours (2800 and -119).

Yes Todd, it is a different camera, but the symptoms are so very, very similar. I have also found that no matter what WB setting I use on the camera, a new NEF created using the camera's Overlay feature always has a Colour Temp 2800 and Tint -119 when imported into Lr, yet it looks exactly the same as the original image until the WB setting is changed in Lr.

This is a different camera and using a proprietary function probably not supported in LR/ACR. Adobe Engineering will see your post link here so if related perhaps can address it as well.

I posted a similar weird problem 3 months ago, but no one seems to have noticed it.
