Re: become a white balance fanatic

I think you're right, white balance is important. Usually I get good results with auto white balance but in this case it was a struggle getting the colours right. I then used an Expodisk to make a custom white balance and that solved a lot of colour problems. I guess a grey card basically gets the same result.

The expo disc is just as good, possibly a little better - I have one also.  It's just that bringing a grey card is usually easier and less bulky...
