First post, just to keep the robot from moving my thread.

If you want to get the white balance right, one of the easier tools is the X-Rite ColorChecker Passport.
It's a gray card on steroids.

Adorama has it on a weekend sale for $30 off.
Regularly $99, now $69.

I have one of these and they are great. There are 3 targets in one. And I paid the $99 price. So, $69 is a great deal. :)

Went to link, added to cart. Price $99. Sales Rep said most likely a link to expired sale. Not valid, unless it begins tomorrow.

Sales Rep doesn't seem to know what he's talking about, I just went to the site, using the link posted by Wall-E, and the price is definitely $69.00 - about 10 seconds ago.

I know the link says $69, but adding to cart and going to checkout shows $99. Did you add it to the cart and start a checkout process? (I just tried it a 2nd time with the same result) Either I'm too early or too late.

I did, and the cart also showed $69.00.
The cart also remembers visits, even if you've closed the site...
See if you can access this:

PS - just thinking, if you wanted to buy it, I could send you a screen capture showing that price...
They want almost $30 for shipping to Canada, wonder how much that package weighs!!!

If you do, let us know how you made out. "Just in case" I did take two screenshots, and placed the browser window in such a way that the computer date and time also show.
If you don't need them, my index finger knows the way to the delete button - blindfolded ;-)
