OK!
LISTEN CAREFULLY,,,,,,......... WILL SAY THIS ONLY ONCE,,,
I've got a FULL bottle of Drambuie, it's sitting on the table with a black
background. Every time I take a shot the camera averages the scene out to
be
18% grey (as it should!!!! (****!! I NEW that!!!) ) and the black
background ain't black.......... So ,,... I've got THREE QUATERS
of a bottle of Drambuie on the table. I set the camera ( EOS 5D )
to custom white balance, after taking a shot of a white subject....... (as
per Canon instructions )... and setting that as the custom white
balance......and I've still got grey!!!!!!!.... I know!!!,, I can put
a
grey card in the first shot and sort it out in CS3 later but after a
quarter
of a bottle of Drambuie I want to do it "in camera"...... I'm stuborn.. so

HALF a bottle of Drambuie, a little light is showing through it but the
background is still brasicly blaack..... Rightio I've tried
sevr..severi....several different exposures, over and under, **** knows

bottle of Drambuie sitting on the table with a blackish sort of
background...... I can't get the ****in' camera to focus......... (f u c
