Meet my new best friend.
This is a white balance disc.
It's really, really wonderful.
You know when you take pictures inside and they turn out way too blue? Or way too yellow? It's because you don't have the correct white balance preset selected on your camera.
White balance is the process of removing unrealistic color casts, so that objects which appear white in person are rendered white in your photo.
But it seemed even when I had the correct one selected my photos still never had the correct colors, and that made post processing a nightmare. With this disc you choose the custom white balance settings with your camera, fill your frame with the disc, and press your shutter to acquire the data. Accurate colors every time.
It's a dream!
I ordered mine here. It only cost $20, and is well worth every penny.
Here are some pictures I took with my new friend. So pretty!
