4 steps, but my initial point was how many actual physical presses before getting to white balance that counts...

1. Press and hold WB button
2. Turn dial to select PRE
3. Let go WB button (not sure if this is counted a step or not)
4. Hold WB button until it prompts to take a sample photo
5. Take the photo

Regarding this topic, I remember the metering is based on 18% Grey reading this from somewhere. So meaning if you use a grey card, then you can use spot metering and just shoot in A/S mode.

Not to mention those grey card is sold as well.

It's fine to print out a grey card, but make sure your paper surface isn't reflective or partially reflective. Else, it will make it less accurate. Try look for surrounding boxes/cards/hard plastics that are grey, a bit of trial and error is needed here. But most will be close enough.

Remember the video where I showed about the setting Custom WB with a white card, its actually double sided. One side white, one side grey. I DIY-ed from those VCR cassette sleeves. Very robust, water proof (unlike paper or cardboard), and i double it as a huge bounce card with velcro stuck on one of the sides to the back of my flash. Works better than those Gary Fong or Stofens with next to no cost at all. Whenever I need a Custom WB, pull down the card, shoot the white side, and stick it back on the flash. Voila!

As with what I have shared in Sony Thread, see if any of you are interested with some DIY over the weekend

Not sure bout u guys, but I can't seem to see thevideo in the iPhone.

35mm or 50mm
Which is one is niftier?

for me, i prefer 35...
it can be prime lens and portrait lens..weehee

So I buy 35mm better?

D5100 is the second compact dslr in line after D3100, it is just slightly bigger than the D3100, and hold way better performance, imo, it is well suited for girl too. Although i see no wrong why guy cant hold d5100, its light and compact very suitable for traveling light.

that's all. i roughly watch only 
since you said D5100 is hanging on neck for 5 hours will not have any feeling. wah, then it is really light
