New expo disk for mirrorless

By Kelly

I was having trouble getting a clear reading. I noticed a lot of yellow tint with my old expo disk. It was about 6 years old. I don't know if they expire or this one is made for mirrorless camera body and lens but my pictures are amazing and cutting down my editing time significantly. It is also a lot thinner with was an added bonus!

ExpoDisc V3 Professional white balance

Upon buying the DV3 and receiving it, I immediately tried it at my favorite place to photograph. I used it to obtain a good white balance and then on to photograph a few eagles. When I returned home, I downloaded all of the images and the good white balance. The results were excellent & totally calibrated with the ExpoDisc. This saved me some time in post just attempting to obtain a good white balance.

Can the Expodisk v3 be purchased with both the 82 mm and the 77 mm Step-down Rings?
Asked by: Thomas
Yes the ExpoDisc V3 Professional White Balance Filter can be used with step rings but you can also just hold the larger filter over the smaller lens to take the reference photo. It does not need to be attached to the lens.
