The Tiffen 80 series of filters are blue. They are used to
balance daylight film under artificial, tungsten or standard (household)
incandescent lighting.
Let's say you're at a family gathering
and you've brought your camera and want to take some photos of this
once-a-year gathering. You have traditional daylight balanced film but
find yourself in a room filled with table lamps. If left unfiltered,
your photos will turn out yellowish. Under certain circumstances,
perhaps a nice effect but not flattering in terms of skin tones or what
our eyes are used to seeing or expecting. Enter the 80A filter!...
This
filter allows you to "balance", i.e. bring back, correct color tone to
your images. There is some loss of film speed that may require the use
of a tripod but, at least, your photos will demonstrate the proper
tonality they so richly deserve.
Tiffen makes the 80 series of
filters in many sizes to accommodate the many uses this filter has. This
filter can be used by the pro and amateur alike, weekend photo warrior
or pro cinematographer and must be considered an essential addition to
any photo arsenal.
