Rough guide to Kelvin settings

Candle Light =1000K
Sunrise/set =2000/3000k
Normal light bulb =3000/3500k
Flourescent tubes =4000K
Direct sunlight =5400/5500K
Flash = 5500/6000K
Cloudy =6000/7000K
Shade =7000/8000K

A rough guide to camera light metering, not using presettings but the Kelvin range for those cameras so equipped
