Tiffen 55mm 80B Camera Lens Filter

Product description The 55mm 80B Tungsten to Daylight Conversion Glass Filter is a high-quality, durable, and effective solution for photographers and videographers seeking to harmonize the color temperature of their images when shooting under tungsten lighting. This versatile filter expertly shifts the color temperature from a warm 3400K to a balanced daylight 5500K, ensuring that daylight film can be used accurately with household incandescent lamps.Crafted with precision, the filter boasts a single coating that contributes to its effectiveness in color correction. It is designed to 'warm' or 'cool' the captured image, compensating for various lighting conditions you may encounter during a shoot. The filter factor of 2 indicates the degree of light absorption, requiring an additional 1 f-stop of light to maintain proper exposure.This 80B filter is part of the comprehensive 80 series from Tiffen, which includes a range of filters to address different lighting scenarios. Each filter in the series is tailored to correct specific color temperature discrepancies, such as the 80A for household incandescent lamps (3200K) and the 80C for clear flash bulbs (3800K).For cameras with internal metering systems, adjustments to exposure are made automatically, adapting to the light absorption of the filter. However, when using external or handheld meters, it's essential to account for the filter factor to achieve the desired exposure.In addition to the 80 series, Tiffen offers other color correcting filters like the 85 series, which is the inverse of the 80 series, designed for tungsten film used in daylight. The 81 series provides a warming effect, while the 82 series offers a cooling effect, counterbalancing the 81 series. For specialized lighting conditions, the FL-D filter corrects daylight film in fluorescent lighting, and the FL-B filter is suitable for tungsten film in fluorescent lighting.The 55mm 80B Tungsten to Daylight Conversion Glass Filter is an essential tool for photographers and videographers who demand precision and versatility in their work, ensuring that regardless of the lighting conditions, the final image will exhibit true-to-life colors and a professional level of quality.
