Luminous Landscape Reviews WhiBal

Mark Goldstein | Accessories | November 25, 2004 | 0 Comments

Luminous Landscape has reviewed a new productm WhiBal, for removing colour casts from your photographs, specifically targetted at RAW files. WhiBal has been created by Michael Tapes, a name that some readers may recognise - Tapes also runs his onw website, rawworkflow.com, which sells and provides support for Capture One software, amongst other things.

“So, who needs a WhiBal, and what on earth is a WhiBal anyhow?

WhiBal is simply four pieces of precision molded plastic that have an extremely neutral colour. They are secured together with a rivet that allows them to rotate, and are attached to a lanyard that can hang around your neck or attach to your shooting vest when you’re in the field.

Their advantage over a gray card is size and convenience. Also durability. They are coloured all the way through, and even if they become scratched they will not provide a false reference. Also, with white, black and two shades of gray, you are able to use the WhiBal to set white point and black point as well, and also get a correct setting even if your exposure is off.”
