18% Gray Cards Tony Sweet has mentioned "18% gray card" a couple of times and I was wondering where I can get one to meter off of when doing macro flower shots etc. Would anyone know where they can be purchased or any good alternatives? Thanks a bunch!

You can contact portersphoto.com or any pro shop will have some... but here's a trick... on a film can by Kodak (that cute little snap lid for the top - know what I'm talking about?) Well, that lid is 18% grey!! Just focus on that and get a reading. Set your camera to that setting and viola!! 18% grey setting.

Wonderful! That's a great idea, never knew all those old canisters would come in handy other than to lure wild animals out by putting peanut butter in them. Thanks for your answer I am going to try that out tonight.
