LincolnCentMeHere Pillar of the Community United States 558 Posts	Posted 06/22/2016 09:57 am I have an iPhone 6 that I use to take my not so great, well not even not so good pics with. I've read that I need to purchase an 18% gray board to help with lighting issues. Thoughts? Links? Ideas? Please. Report this Post to the Staff

austrokiwi Pillar of the Community 2087 Posts	Posted 06/22/2016 10:15 am try any of your local photography shops. B&H or Adorama should have what you want within your price range for example: http://www.adorama.com/dkgcp.html Report this Post to the Staff
