I *think* I understand that both a gray card and a white card can be used for setting custom WB, and that perhaps using the gray card gives a better and more consistent result than the white card for these purposes.
I also *think* I understand that a gray card can be used for setting proper exposure under uncertain lighting conditions, but I don't think the white card is used for this purpose. :blushing:
For clarification, can somebody please answer the following questions:
1. When is it appropriate to use a gray card for setting custom WB? For setting proper exposure?
2. When is it appropriate to use a white card instead of a gray card for any purpose?
Thanks.
