Just reset my 4 cameras to daylight saving time. Most people will forget to do this and after they take some pictures see the wrong time.

Thats why I posted because most people forget about it. The news stations NEVER tell you just remind you to change your smoke alarm batteries but not to check your cameras..LOL

P900 needed setting but D7000 and D5300 apparantly were automatic.

Some cameras have an automatic setting, but with the adjustments to when DST starts, it doesn't always work. My Canon SX50 said "on," but time hadn't changed this morning.

I didn't need to change the time on mine, as they were still set to DST from last year. I never noticed the difference in my images. :-D

The time in all my cameras was set in the factory by either Nikon, or in one case Sony, employees. Out of respect for them, I never disturb it. :)

What white balance / color temperature setting should we choose for this new light though?

You won't notice any difference in the images, just the time stamp on the files will be off.

I don't know if my cameras change it automatically, but I don't really care if the time on my photos is off by an hour.

I can't find the menu button to change the time...

Not to mention resetting your car clock, which can sometimes be more difficult than operating the International Space Station.
