Query about custom white balance
Sir I have one query regarding custom white balance.
Sir in “Basics and advanced fundamentals of photography” course you taught us how to take and set reference image for custom white balance.
Sir instead of white paper, can we take photo by removing the lens, which also gives pure white colour just like white paper.

Nope. That will not work. The whole purpose of custom white balance is to get a reference of white in that lighting situation. Depending on what WB you have kept the camera will calculate the values of that white paper in that lighting situation and give you a proper wb.
What you are proposing is to simply overexpose the scene you are shooting and that will not work. -
Ok Sir. Thanks for making me understand the logic.
