Frequently asked questions
What is the Tiffen 85 filter used for?
It is used to balance daylight (5500K) for tungsten-balanced film (3400K). It prevents the image from appearing too blue when shooting film outdoors.
How many stops of light do I lose with a Tiffen 85?
The Tiffen 85 has a filter factor of 2, which means you lose exactly 1 stop of light and must adjust your aperture or ISO accordingly.
Can I use the Tiffen 85 on a digital camera?
Yes. While digital cameras have white balance settings, using an 85 filter can help preserve dynamic range in the red channel and provide a more organic 'warm' look than digital post-processing.
