Introducing the All-New eLAB white_balance grey reference card
Developed by Master Dental Technician Sascha Hein, the eLAB white_balance Gray Reference Card Set was designed to be used in dental photography (with and without the polar_eyes Cross Polarization Filter) in order to develop a robust workflow for shade estimation.

- D50 Lighting Indicator to check for ideal light conditions during clinical try-in’s
- Crop marks to serve as distance guides
