I can't read that, the print is too small..I was just asking basically...do you use a grey card, your hand...the sidewalk...an ExpoDisc?

Sorry - white card, or hand, or a highlight in the scene, or just intentionally "warm" or "cool" by eye . .

Ok.

WB might seem like "good enough" is "good enough" but it's not necessarily.

If you want accurate WB you need to buy a calibrated card (like a WhiBal) or something like an ExpoDisc.

Your hand aint gonna do it, nor is eyeballing it...I don't care how good a person is at adjusting by eye.

That's just life.

Luckily, they aren't expensive.
