I have a Canon 30D and I currently use a Lastolite EZY Balance Grey/White 12" and I hope there is an easier way? www.lastolite.com The problem I have is that I have to take a photo in manual mode and the card must fill the whole frame and I can set my balance from there. It is ok if I have an extra person to hold it but yesterday at a football game it was blowing away in the wind and I couldn't get it in the same light as the players in the field because of shadows and such. It took about 30 min to secure it and get a shot in the correct lighting. Please help! |

I use the Whibal (http://www.whibal.com/index_new.html) card that I can use by myself. Works ok for me. --------------------------- "To be ignorant of one's ignorance is the malady of the ignorant." Amos Bronson Alcott |

shoot in raw and auto or a preset function, and then adjust the white balance on the computer. In raw, you don't loose information. --------------------------- Dallas TX Commercial Photography Dallas TX Portrait Photography Dallas TX Wedding Photography TX Aerial Photography UNT Photo Club |
