Review: A simple and effective MUST HAVE tool for improving colors - I've used this on two Nikon DSLR's with WB preset function (D90s & D750). I ran several trials of my own comparing the auto white balance with presets using the filter. Here's the key to setting white balance using this method over your camera's auto white balance: Auto white balance looks for the brightest spot in the frame when you take the shot and assumes that to be pure white. It adjusts the color balance to make that spot white. In many photos that will work great, or at least be close enough that the colors look good. For my tests, I made sure that there was nothing white in the shot, which happens more often than you may realize. My trials were both indoors and outside. For each trial, I took two consecutive shots from the exact same position with only natural light using the exact same focal length, shutter speed, aperture, and iso - simply changing from auto white balance to a WB preset using the JJC WB-F1 white balance filter. The results were dramatic, with the preset reproducing the colors accurately while the colors in the auto white balance trials were conspicuously incorrect. In one example the brightest part of the shot was part of a beige wall in the background, and the auto white balance made it a white wall, shifting all the other colors accordingly. I love how quick and easy it is to use - and I put a lanyard on it using the hole in the handle for convenience when I'm shooting outside. I'm a Nikon guy and setting the preset is a simple as 1) change the WB from auto to preset 2) press and hold the WB button until "Pre" flashes on the LCD screen 3) face the light source* and hold the filter over the lens 3) squeeze off a shot - auto focus is inhibited, and it doesn't actually take a photo 4) look for "Good" on the LCD screen and you're ready to go! If the light changes (e.g. clouds or shade), simply redo steps 2-4. * when the predominant light falling on the subject is reflected - say, off a wall, that is the light source I understand many Canon DSLR's also have this capability, but it may take a extra step or two. Check with your camera's user guide. My tests were hardly scientific, but no reason for me to think the ExpoDisc would perform noticeably better, if any better at all. I've never held an ExpoDisc in my hand, so they may very well pass light frequencies slightly more accurately and may even be constructed more durably... I don't honestly know, Even so, I can buy three of these for the price of one ExpoDisc, and I'm very happy with the performance of the JJC filter. If you buy an ExpoDisc specifically for the size of your lens, it sits on the lens so you may not need to hold it when you take the calibration shot, but most ExpoDisc reviews advise you to buy the larger size so that you can use it with all your lenses regardless of filter ring size. That means you're holding it by hand anyway - and they don't have a handle. Even if you shoot RAW like I do, whether with the JJC or a competitor, this method is an easy way to get accurate baseline color balance in the metadata, streamlining your retouching process. I'm very happy with the JJC white balance filter, and would buy it again in a minute!
Review: Simple But Effective Device Allows Quick Setting of a Custom White Balance - This is an incredibly easy-to-use gadget to help set a custom white balance. I have used a gray card when shooting portraits, but asking the subject to hold it is awkward and then if you move to another location outdoors, you need to do it all over again. It really slows down the session. Once you've rehearsed the steps using this filter to set the white balance takes less than 1 minute: 1) Change focus mode on lens to manual 2) Change White Balance mode to Custom on the camera's menu (I can do it 2 different ways via the menu of the top control panel on the Canon 5D) 3) Shoot one image with the JJC Filter close to the lens, filling the frame with the filter. 4) Select this image as the Custom White Balance image on the WB menu 5) Change lens back to Auto Focus and start shooting. I do need to remember to change back to AWB after the shoot or I will end up with a weird color in later images. I do shoot in RAW, so it's easy enough to adjust in ACR, but I'm trying to eliminate that step whenever possible. The JJC WB Filter is sturdy yet lightweight (all plastic) and includes a hole at the end of the handle so that you can thread a string or cord to it to hang it from your camera bag or tripod. The surface appears to be many tiny lenses that bend and refract the light. I don't understand the light theory behind the design, but it definitely seems to work. I have tried it in several lighting conditions, one of which was a mixture of tungsten light bulbs of various colors, and it definitely improved the overall color of the scene.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: No mention of size here.  is it large enough for 58mm?  Thank you**
A: Yes it's extremely large. It's larger than a 100mm.

**Q: How is this supposed to be used in post processing with raw images? The instructions are so vague. I must be missing something.**
A: I don't have one of these, but, I imagine you could use it the same way you'd use a grey card in post (take a picture of the grey card, as it's neutral, you now have the color cast of the ambient light). See http://layersmagazine.com/using-a-gray-card-for-setting-white-balance-in-adobe-photoshop-camera-raw.html for a how-to

**Q: Can anyone describe how to use this? do i hold it in front of my lens and point at subject, shoot, and set that as my custom wb?**
A: Set camera settings to 'Automatic' with the lens, set set the auto focus to 'OFF' place the filter right in front of the lens take a shot in the general lighting conditions of your subject, no need to have the subject in the shot. Use that shot to set your custom wb. Do it again if the overall temperature of the lighting changes.

**Q: Can this be used with camcorders that have a custom white balance button? As in, place it in front and hit the WB button and be set?**
A: Yes.  The idea here is that you stand where whatever you'll be filming will be and point the camera at the brightest source of light with this filter in front of the lens and hit the WB button.  It diffuses all the light coming into the lens to get a good average of what'll actually hit the subject.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Preliminary Review of JJC White Balance Filter and Comparison to ExpoDisc
*by T***A on February 13, 2015*

This is a preliminary review of the JJC white balance filter. I will also offer a basic comparison with the Expodisc (version 1 aluminum). The JJC is very large and according to the packaging, can handle up to a 100mm lens. The product does seem a little flimsy and I'm not sure of the long term durability, but I am hopeful that it will last if I do not abuse it. Compared to the expo disc it is very flexible, but as long as it holds up, that's OK with me because of the lower price point of the JJC. I also notice that the JJC has the prism type material on both sides versus the expo disc having the prism material only on the outside and a smooth translucent white material on the inside. As far as performance goes, the JJC seems to get the job done. Based on preliminary comparison testing(my Expodisc came in today from ebay), the JJC delivers accurate results, although see below for more on accuracy. One caveat with these types of filters: using these things with consistent results seems to be an art in itself. Some situation are relatively simple, while others are trickier. Doing research online should be of much help. Documentation with the JJC is sparse while the Expodisc has a nice booklet guiding me through the difficulties we will encounter under the practically infinite lighting conditions in our world. Now as to the performance differences with the Expodisc, which I assume many are interested in because of it's popularity: The JJC appears a little warmer than the neutral Expo(without blue warming gel), but a little cooler than the ver. 1 Expo with the provided blue warming gel. As for dead on accuracy, I can't say for sure which one is more so, but I present this as a comparison at this time. For those wanting Accuracy(presumably what these products are about)this is important and when/if I get a better handle on this important metric, I will update this review. These discs may not always be necessary, but there are times when auto white balance will be fooled. That's when you pull this out. However, I also think it's a good idea to get used to "eyeballing" the color temp so we are better able to "dial in" the temp using our own trained color perception to provide the image we want, whether that's dead on accuracy, a little warm or a little cool. This can be done through Kelvin or WB fine tuning as often the presets are not what we want or need. In case anyone's interested, if you can find a CTB filter light enough (1/8 or lighter), you should be able to attach it to the JJC and turn it into a warming WB filter as Expoimaging has done with their product. Conversely, If you can find a light enough CTO filter, you can cool the image. As already stated if my long term experience/results differ, I will update this review. All in all, for the price, this is a good buy, particularly for someone who wants to try it or experiment without the investment of an Expo disc. Edit September 2015: As for comparing the JJC with the Expodisc, I spoke to an Expodisc rep and she told me the warming model I have is calibrated for use with the warming gel, but not calibrated with the gel removed. In other words, taking the gel out doesn't necessarily give a neutral result. It may or may not. It seems like a small point, but I add it for sake of accuracy and clarity. On the use of these types of white balance tools in general: Back in January 2015, though not hired, I took shots at my wife's nephews wedding shower (yes men were invited). I did not have this tool at the time and ran into mixed tungsten lighting and left it on AWB. I normally shoot JPEG and found WB correction really tough and wasn't completely happy with the results, although the nephew and everybody else seemed to love the results. Going forward to March 2015, I had my WB tools and found florescent lighting at the wedding. I decided to go with the Expodisc because of the warming gel. I couldn't have been happier with the results! Beautiful and consistent JPEGs throughout! I shared them through Photobucket and he was very appreciative and happy. Recently I got a call from the nephew. He told me he was disappointed with the shots from the pro that he hired (she used digital and film Nikons and took 5 months to get the finished photos to him) and asked if I would mail a DVD to him with the full size files that I took. Needless to say, that was a very rewarding feeling. I tell this story because whether you use JJC or Expodisc, it really does work. Especially if you shoot or want to shoot JPEG. If I was going to use the JJC for people shots, I would experiment with a warming gel to warm up the image a bit, since so many people will prefer this. Then you would have more options. One more thing: I have been looking for a simple yet effective post processing tool. I have not yet climbed the sharp learning curve with Photoshop, etc. because I really don't want to spend even more time in front of my computer. For the wedding shots I used Athentech Perfectly Clear with excellent results. Many of the shots look nothing short of glamour shots! They make plugins and are also working on a standalone version currently in Beta stage.
