Review Summary
An essential tool for photographers and videographers, the 52mm 85 Daylight to Tungsten Conversion Glass Filter is designed to optimize your images by adjusting for the varying color characteristics of different light sources. Whether you're shooting in sunlight, daylight, under incandescent or fluorescent lighting, or even using other artificial light sources, this filter ensures your images maintain their natural colors.
Understanding that film and video are rated for specific color temperatures, such as daylight or tungsten light, this filter is expertly crafted to correct any discrepancies between the recording medium and the light source. This ensures your images are not only vibrant but also true to life.
Part of the renowned 85 Series, this filter is particularly useful when using tungsten film in daylight, which can often result in a bluish cast. By employing the 52mm 85 Daylight to Tungsten Conversion Glass Filter, you can achieve natural colors even when shooting with tungsten film outdoors.
For optimal results, it's recommended to use the filter that most accurately matches your film type. The 85 filter produces slightly cooler results than the 85B, while the 85B is designed to convert tungsten film to daylight. The 85C, on the other hand, can be used as a creative warming effect with daylight film in daylight, and is designed to produce cooler results with tungsten film in daylight than the 85 or 85B.
In conclusion, the 52mm 85 Daylight to Tungsten Conversion Glass Filter is a versatile and indispensable tool for any photographer or videographer looking to capture the most accurate and vibrant images under varying lighting conditions.
