I can't get a responce over at raw work flow. Got my card in the mail and was trying it out. I took a series of 4 images, outdoors, with the WhiBal card in a different corner. The exposure varied a little between images. Then I downloaded the RAW images into ACR 4.1.

Flipping between the images and putting the white balance eyedropper on the card in the image I expected the RGB numbers to all be 120, they were not. However, once I adjusted the exposure, they all came into line. And now to my questions;

Should clicking on the card be first in my workflow regardless of the RGB numbers or should I make other adjustments first? Watching the video, I got the impression that nothing else mattered except clicking on the WhiBal card and all of your ills disappear. Are the numbers supposed to register 127 regardless of exposure?

thanks

Your first three adjustments with the Whibal should be: white point, black point, and white balance.
