Tiffen 80B 105mm Coarse Thread Color Conversion Filter

Tiffen 80B 105mm Coarse Thread Color Conversion Filter | 105C80B

Out on a mixed-source lighting shoot, mercury vapor and tungsten fixtures rarely match daylight film balance. That mismatch shows up as a sickly green cast unless you’ve got the right glass in front of the lens. The Tiffen 80B 105mm Coarse Thread Color Conversion Filter steps in to cool down that warm ambient light, letting you match raw daylight stock or match existing windows-lit setups without reshooting an entire scene.

• This 80B filter shifts color temperature from roughly 3200K tungsten toward 5600K daylight ? a full 140-mired correction that banishes those orange shadows and lets you blend artificial sources with natural light seamlessly.
• It threads onto larger-diameter cinema and still lenses using a coarse 105mm mount, meaning it won’t cross-thread on production housings built for robustness rather than fine pitch consumer gear.
• It’s a solid piece of optical filter glass held in a metal ring built to survive location work ? no rattle, no slop, just reliable color conversion shot after shot.
• You’ll stack it with polarizers or ND grads if you want, but first you fix the color balance so every downstream layer has neutral light to work with ? and that’s what this filter does best.
