With all the anxiety about white balance and a marketplace full of cards, devices, and thingamajigs, Dr. Sigma Freud is pleased to announce the availability of the latest and greatest ultimate white balancing aid known to mankind!
Introducing Whi-TP!
Afraid of white balancing on your tee shirt or a sheet of paper?
Then Whi-TP is for you.
Do you fear losing that overpriced piece of plastic?

Worried about that overpriced piece of cardboard getting dirty?
Then Whi-TP is for you.

Wipe away all your anxiety fears with Dr. Freud's Whi-TP. This remarkable invention is the ultimate cure for photochromophobia.
Product details:

Whi-TP is actually a dispensing mechanism for White-sheets, a fantastic white balancing product that fits any digital or video camera. Each Whi-TP includes 425 White-Sheets. With that many you won't have to take sheet from anyone ever again.
Easy to use:
White-sheet has two modes of operation.

1. Hold a White-Sheet in front of the camera and take a custom white balance exposure of the reflected light.

2. Attach a White-Sheet to your lens (with the optional elastomeric attachment device) then point the camera at the light source and take the WB exposure.
Here are some examples:
Incandescent WB preset in SD14:



Incandescent custom WB using Whi-TP:

Fluorescent custom WB using Whi-TP:



Here is the complete Whi-TP set including the optional elastomeric attachment device:



But wait, there's more!

White-Sheet can also be used as a diffuser for your strobe. Simply attach (with the optional elastomeric attachment device) one or more White-Sheets to your flash unit to soften the light for those flattering portrait shots.



No photographer should be without this amazing product so get yours today.
Simply fill out an order form and say: "Send me mine."
Enclose $75.00 + shipping and handling.

But wait! Order within the next 30 seconds and we will include FREE the unique elastomeric attachment device. (Just pay separate shipping and handling)

I sent you my indebit card. There might be 75 bucks on it. Keep the card. The PIN is 1234.

Question: Does this device also do paper trail work?

My idea of good company is the fellowship of clever, well-informed people, who have a great deal of conversation and liberality of ideas.

Sorry. 75 bucks is not enough doe. We do not accept male deer as payment. Your indebit is invalid. Or you may be an invalid.

Click to expand...
Yes. At slight additional cost you may upgrade to the gTPs equipped version. This will geotag up to 500 feet of Whi-TP but only if you are on a USGS quadralateral orthographically projected trail.
Remember: The more money you spend, the better the photographer you are!

Subject: Proud to be a Marine

A recent study found the average Marine walks about
900 miles a year.

Another study found Marines drink, on average, 22
gallons of alcohol a year.

That means, on average, Marines get about 41
miles to the gallon.

Makes You Proud To Be A Marine!!

But can us Oarstralians expect a down under model?

But surely Jim, it IS a down-under model, if you see what I mean 'Arry.

Are you going to do an upmarket signed offering - i.e. with "Bronco" inscribed thereapon in the corners?

BTW - I'm glad you did not use video to promote this. With the often poor quality of sound on videos, it's just possible the "white" might have been misheard! :-O

The photograph isolates and perpetuates a moment of time: an important and revealing moment, or an unimportant and meaningless one, depending upon the photographer's understanding of his subject and mastery of his process. -Edward Weston

discourse on the use of the white-tp tool for achieving a correct white balance with a Sigma camera. This is the most balanced presentation I have seen to date and is certain to produce a rush to flush. Consider the aid this will be to photographers in National Parks when bad weather and strange lighting situation occur and they have access to porta-potties to save the day. Thanks for the best laugh I have had in months :O), ps my order is on the way.
Cheers,

yes, AND there's a lot of truth to the recommendations, which makes
it even funnier.

In addition to grey and white cardboard, I carry a coffee filter and
have used a Kleenex to set a custom white balance, but never the,
ummm, full roll paper product. Yes, I can imagine uses on a hike,
let's not go into that, LOL...

Sandy,

The sequence of recycling in the hiking example is crucial.

If you want a response, Hank, you'd do well to address the doctor appropriately. It's Dr Freud to you.

And I read your little "Nederlandse" intro somewhere else too. Aangenaam kennis te maken.

Sorry, he3

All patents are strictly enforced by our crack team of legal experts, the law firm of Dewey, Cheatham, and Howe.

May I suggest however the purchase of USED Whi-TP at slightly reduced cost. This may solve your custom color balance needs.

Thanks, TD, it is a lot of fun.
