Comments about Lastolite Lastolite Ezybalance Collapsible Grey & White 12" (30.5cm) Exposure Aid Card.:

The Lastolite color balance rings were exactly what I was looking for to give my photos an accurate color balance. I have always purchased the best glass possible, so why compromise non-true colors ? Some quick experimentation showed that indeed there was a marked difference when using the 18% gray as a baseline for my EOS 5D Mk II to follow. I chose the 12 inch collapsable circles, as they'd be easy to tuck away in my already overstuffed roll-around suitcase. Don't think that I could have made a better choice on this one !!!

Comments about Lastolite Lastolite Ezybalance Collapsible Grey & White 12" (30.5cm) Exposure Aid Card.:

I don't use this for all my shots; but, for those where the color has to be dead-on, this tool does the trick. I have shot artwork in local galleries and the Ezybalance lets me take the photos in the gallery setting and develop the images at home with confidence the colors will match the art.

Comments about Lastolite Lastolite Ezybalance Collapsible Grey & White 12" (30.5cm) Exposure Aid Card.:

This is not your average white balance target. I was debating heavily between this unit and an Expodisc setup. I chose to get this target mostly for the cost, ~[$] vs. [$] and can't be more happy that I did.The target folds up into a small pouch that can be stored anywhere. Also with the white and grey sides you can get accurate white balances settings in any lighting. No longer do you have to guess at setting and tweak it on the camera or computer. Your colors are much more accurate and true.Another good things about using a target vs. the Expodisc is that you use it will all of your lenses. The Expodisc has to be repurchased for each different size lens you have. So you have to get a 77mm for your 2.8s, at 52mm for your 1.4, a 72mm for your wide angle, and a 82mm for your telephoto. That's [$] just to get your kit outfited with white balance targets. With this little compact and easy to use target you can zero in all of your lens without fumbling for different pieces or spending a wad of cash. Use the money to buy something else.Lastly, when I was recently at a wedding this target doubled perfectly as a background for macro photography. I just put the white side up, set the rings down on top of it and started shooting. No need to bring a tent or find a white table etc. Just make sure whatever you put on the target isn't dirty or you'll mess us your target.At [$] +/- this is a perfect target for anyone looking to improve the picture quality and reduce their post production work.

I used this for an all day portrait session and found it extremely fast for checking exposure (just use the gray side and look for the histogram bar in the middle), and for spot on custom white balance.

None
Best Uses:
Flourescent lighting, Night photography
Bottom Line:

Comments about Lastolite Lastolite Ezybalance Collapsible Grey & White 12" (30.5cm) Exposure Aid Card.:

None of the three flourescent white balance presets on my Olympus camera is correct for the flourescent lighting in my home. I used the white side of the Ezybalance Grey/White Card to establish the camera's custom white balance setting, and the subsequent shots were great. Absolutely no color cast.
