Hey guys.
I have a doubt about custom white balance when recording.
I have a Canon T6i.
I am aware on how to:
. take a shot of a gray or white card (or paper)..
. set the camera custom white balance (based on this photo).
My questions are:
1) Should I photometry (is this a word in English, sorry!) my camera when shooting the gray/white card? Which settings on my camera must I use while doing this?
Every single tutorial I’ve been to simply does not talk about this, they just say: “shoot a white piece of paper etc”. **bleep**! lol.
How my camera should be set for this specific part?
2) Should I use the ‘target’ on the back of my gray card to FOCUS before I shoot the other site of the card (gray part)?
Well…hopefully someone will shed a light on this…
Thanks in advance!

That's exactly what I was looking for: all the alternatives are reasonable and certainly functional.
Thanks a lot! You really helped!
Cheers!!!
