This is something I saw today, anyone tried it?

I've got the ExpoDisc version and rarely use it.

I mainly just leave the camera's white balance on Sunny & stick a grey card and/or an old Macbeth Color Checker into the frame occasionally, since I'm going to adjust white balance in Camera Raw anyway. I am shooting RAW.

I'm working on the theory that white balance is always wrong, but if you settle on one it's always wrong by the same amount & in the same direction (for any specific light source/session) which makes fixing it in Camera Raw easier.
