## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you use this to set custom white balance in camera or during processing? I know it can be used for both. Just seeing what's more common with this.**
A: So if I am reading everyone correctly, here, then this is how to use this thing; for jpeg shots, you set your white balance with this thing then you go shoot.  So, if you change lighting then you need to redo your white balance before moving on.  If you shoot raw, then you take a shot of this thing, then set white balance in LR or PS against that shot, and then use that for all other shots in the same lighting.  If your lighting changes, then you have to take another test shot to set your WB with in LR/PS.  Am I understanding that correctly?

**Q: I ordered this card a month ago, and it folded down to a smaller size. This no longer looks to be the case. Is this now a different card?**
A: It can be folded into a smaller size like a 80/110 cm reflector, we just do not fold & pack it any more.

**Q: What is the difference between this one and a similar one with white/gray/black? And another one with multiple color squares that looks like makeup?**
A: Hi, 
This one and the similar one with black/white/grey are used to adjust white balance on your camera.  The other color square cards are used for color calibration.

**Q: Is the "white" side appropiate for white balance?**
A: I use the grey side for white balance and it worked perfectly.
