Tiffen 80A 5 x 5 Inch Blue Color Conversion Filter | 5X580A
You’re shooting tungsten-balanced film under daylight, or you’ve mixed light sources and need to regain control over color temperature. That’s where this blue conversion filter earns its place in your kit. The Tiffen 80A is an old-school solution with real professional value ? it shifts the warm cast of tungsten lighting back toward neutral, letting daylight-balanced materials record accurate color. At 5 x 5 inches, it fits squarely into standard matte boxes, ideal for both cinema rigs and still setups.
- This blue filter converts tungsten light sources to daylight color temperature, so you can match your film or sensor’s white balance without guesswork.
- It’s cut from solid optical glass in a true 5 x 5 inch square, giving you room to still use 4 x 5.65 frames or creative holders without vignetting.
- Tiffen’s ColorCore lamination process bonds the filter layers between glass, keeping the optical path consistent and flat across the entire surface.
