Laminating grey card

Postby embi on Sun May 29, 2005 9:18 pm

I recently purchased a book by Scott Kelby about Photoshop CS.

In the back of the book is a grey card. White, grey and black strips.

I was thinking about laminating it but I wonder if the shine of the lamination might make errors to the metering.

Any thoughts?

Don't laminate. The shine will create a problem. By the way, if you have printer and Photoshop then you can make up your own cards and print them out as needed. They are best printed on matte paper.
