Because you have all the colours of the rainbow, I will shoot on daylight settings, because you want the breakaway from natural light to make your shot colourful.
A white card is for exposure, NOT white balance! I've always used daylight-balanced transparency film for night street scenes, fireworks, holiday lights, &c. Just did a digital comparison of my lights, 3200K versus 5000K - I still prefer daylight-balance. I won't pretend to be qualified to recommend anything for you, though - you ought to be able to run your own comparisons and choose for yourself what you prefer. Last year I photographed over 100 local residential scenes on Velvia-50 - starting next week I intend to cover marinas from Chula Vista to Oceanside, Southern California, with a DSLR. This is an exciting time of year for photography - good luck with your project!Spencer Posey wrote: Thank you for the answers.
