Color Compensating Filters Color compensating filters control light by attenuating principally the red green or blue part of the spectrum While controlling one color the filter transmits one or both of the other two colors Thus color compensating filters can make changes to the color balance of pictures recorded on color films or compensate for deficiencies in the spectral quality of a light source For optimum results use the single recommended color compensating filter rather than combining filters for example CC20Y CC20M 20R so using 20R only is preferable KODAK WRATTEN Gelatin Filters Color Compensating Filters have excellent optical quality and are suitable for image forming optical systems over the camera lens for example For less critical work you may use KODAK Color Printing Filters acetate Conversion Filters for Color Films These filters are intended for use whenever significant changes in the color temperature of the illumination are required for example daylight to artificial light The filter may be positioned between the light source and other ele ments of the system or over the camera lens in conven tional photographic recording Filter Filter Exposure Increase Conversion Color Number In Stops in Degrees K 80A D 3200 to 5500 BIS 80B 12 3 3400 to 5500 80C 1 3800 to 5500 80D 1 3 4200 to 5500 85C 1 3 5500 to 3800 85 ob 5500 to 3400 85N3 12 3 5500 3400 POTES 85N6 22 3 5500 3400
