Photography Cool Tool

From the Digital Photographers School, an article on a White Balance Lens Cap. Way cool idea (for rookies like me).

Oooh, that's tempting! Thanks for the link, Amy! I usually set a custom white balance each time I shoot, but I just had that "Smack-on-the-forehead-DUH" moment that my seamless background isn't spot-on white in the first place, and therefore everything has been getting a grayish hue to it lately. I've been struggling with "white" and "what-appears-to-be-white" issues lately.

I marked the page, but if you end up getting one, let me know how you like it!

I use an Expodisc and just love it. Have the size one bigger than my largest lens. Perfect for studio lights and natural light and that ucky light in Churches and Gyms.

Expodisc is the way to go. Otherwise you need several hundred dollars of lens caps if you have a collection
