At PMA I met the owner and the inventor of these devices and they have updated them for the digital age. Basically, they allow you to set an incident exposure and set your white balance if your camera allows you to create a custom white balance. No more sorta on white balance. For those of you still using film (me) it allows you to shoot a frame with the disk on and easily set a color balance from the blank frame. If your meter is good then it will be 18% gray. Unfortunately, no comps, no affiliation, and no free anything. The device however works very well indeed. Now back to the wars. Don dorysrus@mindspring.com
