Thank you. Give it a try and show us your results.
So howzabout explaining how to "Use a white piece of cardboard or plastic to calibrate your camera for current light characteristics." I've seen it done but have NO idea how to do it or why it works. Some how-to would be GREATLY appreciated!

Each camera might be different for that. I would refer you to your manual. One can be found online if you don't have it.
For my camera, there is a button on the back of the Canon that can have various functions assigned to it in the menu.
I chose to make it my color balance button.
To use it, I turn the camera on, hold my whiteboard so the available light is striking it, fill my camera screen with the white and then hit that button.
You'll see your screen's color change to look more like reality.
