Bad white balance

This is absolute rubbish. The claimed color temperature is 5600K +/- 200K, but the actual color temperature is closer to 8000K, which is just plain ridiculous. As you can see in the photos I uploaded, when the camera's white balance is set to 5600k, the image is too blue. At 7000k it's still a bit bluish and only at 8000k does it reach a truly neutral color balance. And to prove it wasn't my camera's white balance, I went outside to compare it to real 5600k daylight. As you can see in all 3 photos, there is always a clear discrepancy between the sunlight (hitting the vase on the left) and the strobe light (hitting the vase on the right). I contacted support and all they did was reassure me that they were "interested" but basically just gave me an overview and never really gave me a meaningful answer. Save money and buy a flash that actually works.
