Inexpensive card set with good lanyard. The gray card is perfect for setting white balance in post. In theory the black and white cards can be used to set the levels for the ends of the histogram, but I think this is much less useful.

This is a useful, portable white/grey card kit for getting an accurate white balance.

It's a grey card! It seems pretty accurate. I used it for the first time yesterday at an outdoor protest on a cloudy day. It really helped bring the WB where it needed to be.

I haven't had a need to use the cards yet but I like the size of them and the lanyard is very nice. They are made out of a plastic that is thick enough to stay flat but thin enough they fit in a pocket very easily. For what you get I think they are worth more than they cost. Thanks for selling a good item and a very fair price.

It does exactly what it is supposed to. Only reason I am not giving 5 stars is that there is also nothing particularly exceptional about it. (Hard to think what _could_ be exceptional about white balance cards, actually. It's such a basic product. So don't worry. Just get one. It works.) Comes as a set of three credit card-sized cards, one white, one black, one grey, all nicely matte without annoying specular reflections. I taped them together in a foldable manner. That way the surfaces are protected and I can easily put them all in a shot. I find the included lanyard less useful but that may depend on your workflow. Sturdy washable plastic, but potentially prone to scratches. (Not that that's a major problem.) If your camera doesn't do spot white balance, you may prefer a larger card unless you correct white balance in postprocessing.
