Q: 1. Are these filters totally transparent or are they just translucent for lights only? In other words, can a picture be taken with them? Thanks.

A: It sounds like you want to put it in front of your lens instead of putting them on a flash or strobe. If that is the case, I would say yes, it will work from an exposure perspective and will reduce your exposure by a 1/4 to 1/3 of a stop. BUT... these are not optically perfect like a screw on yellow filter for black and white might be. The wavelength of light you would filter with these filters would not be uniform or constant and would introduce distortion across the light spectrum. These will never be a substitute for optical filters but they would produce an interesting effect.

Q: 2. Are these individually labeled? Thanks!

A: Just bought a set yesterday. They are not labeled. B&H described this 12X12 set as having 15 color correction filters, but yet in the box there are 16 filters. I counted mine today and there are 16.

Q: 3. How would these fit into a magnetic gel holder that's about 7" X 7"? Should I cut them to fit?

A: The Rosco Color Effects Filter Kit (12 x 12") can work with many holders. If the holder can not work with 12x12 you will need to cut down the gel. These gels cut very easily with a scissor.

Q: 4. Do you simply use Gaffer's tape to apply this to the head of a Profit B10?

A: Yes, gaffers is residue and safe to use with all strobe units.

Q: 5. I see they handle the heat if clipped to barn doors. I have several 1k PAR-60 fixtures that have the typical theater gel frames on them. The gell frames are about 10" in front of the bulb but they get very hot very fast. Will these Rosco gells hold up to an old school 1K PAR-60 tungsten light when used in the gell frame?

A: It is best to put as much space between a gel and a light as possible. These are heat resistant but they can still deteriorate https://bhpho.to/3a3LAHT. Gels are consumables and will often need replacing when used with hotlights.

Q: 6. how would I attach these to a godox ad600 pro?

A: C-47 Production Clips (Matte Black, 24-Pack) BH #C41C47 • MFR #1C47will allow you to attach gels to the front of the reflector. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1405891-REG/c_47_1c47_production_clips_matte_black.html

Q: 7. Is this compatible with the godox ad300 pro?

A: These are not light specific you can use them with a variety of lights.

Q: 8. Is there any specific temperature coefficient of resistance? Of course, heatwise speaking!

A: If you are concerned about heat you can use heat shield with it. https://bhpho.to/3mIvqvu

Q: 9. Is there a way to use it on a soft box?

A: Yes, just attach it to the light before attaching the soft box. Be aware, they could melt if the light gets hot.

Q: 10. Can I attach a gel to a reflector with gaffer tape?

A: Yes, you can. But i would reccomend to use clips instead of gaffer tape.
