I had V2 for years and used it for tricky MIXED lighting conditions indoors when using ambient and flash together outdoors. It worked perfectly! My colors were spot on. This V3 provides the same excellent results and is even nicer to use. I like and prefer the ring for when mounting to my 77mm lens and the carry case is much easier to access the filter than with V2.

works well

I purchased this when I traveled to shoot a friend's wedding and realized I forgot to bring the Expodisc I've had for years. It's not that often that I find myself in a situation where using it is required, but when that does happen, it makes things a lot easier.

The ExpoDisc V3 Professional White Balance Filter (77mm) is for white balance, and an 18% grey card is used for exposure metering, so it is not the same.
