Digital camera reviews of Gray Card 18% R-27

Digital camera Review: 2 large and sturdy 18% gray cards plus one plastic pocket card
Summary: 5 Stars

The 3-pack of R-27 type gray cards I got was the very reasonably priced set that comes from Digital Image Flow. It consists of two 8" x 10" cardboard 18% gray cards (18% is a bit darker gray) and a pocket-sized durable plastic Digital Grey Kard (a slightly lighter gray) made by Digital Image Flow. I think other sellers include three paper cards instead. I don't think any of the sellers are sourcing these from Kodak - but that's fine by me as long as the price is right and they work right.

This set is perfect for an exposure aid for film photography as well as a white balance card for digital photography. The larger cards are very sturdy, solid and durable. The smaller card is totally waterproof and is perfect if you need something for all-weather photography.

For digital photographers who prefer a three- card set with a white, gray, and black card, I'd recommend the Digital Grey Kard Premium;Digital Grey Kard Premium White Balance Card / Gray Card for Digital Photography

If you like a larger card to use for weddings, sports, and other events I'd take a look at the Digital Grey Kard Event (5 by 7 inch size);Digital Grey Kard - Event Sized - White Balance Card - Gray Card for Digital Photography which are plastic and cannot be damaged by humidity, raindrops, spilled coffee, or water splashes.

The shade of gray does not matter for either, really, as real-world tests show. It's the spectral neutrality of the object that really matters. These cards are very accurate and a great value.
