Ok, I know I have been asking a lot of questions on here lately but they are mainly questions that I can't find the answer to anywhere else. So, sorry if they are out there and I just couldn't find them.
I'm getting into strobist photography, specifically outdoors. I am confused on what to set the white balance to. If I do a custom white balance with a big card, then wouldn't the white balance be set to the flash and not the background, because the flash is what is hitting the card? Therefore, my background would have the wrong white balance. So, how do I solve this. Should I just set the white balance to sunny, to flash, set it in editing, or do custom white balance. If I should do custom white balance should I set the custom wb with the flash firing or not firing?
