I have to make myself remember to set the white balance when I’m on location. I have been at many weddings and set the white balance for the ceremony then go to the reception and forget to set my WB. It’s such a pain. I have also use just about anything to set my WB: white cars, paper, wedding dresses (Ha Ha), and just about anything else you can think of that’s white. Thanks again for the amazing video. Keep them coming!!
