Is it possible or recomended to create your own 18% Grey scale card for setting custom white balances? I finally figured out how to correctly do this in my camera and noticed that some of the commercially available cards are fairly pricey for all that they are. If I printed out my own scale, would it be accurate and what shade of grey would I need to print out?
