The Tiffen 4x4" Straw Solid Color Filteradds a warm, golden yellowish coloration across the entire image and helps to subdue overly bluish casts. The solid color design makes this filter well-suited to pairing with other filters for further control over the appearance of imagery. The 2 color density provides less straw coloration than the 3 density, but more than the 1 density filter.

This filter is made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass and grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. It measures 4 x 4" / 101.6 x 101.6mm.

Q: 3. Just got this and the box itself is horizontally off next to the rail mount. When sitting on perfectly leveled rods it sits to the left making the lens sit wrong too. Anyone else got this issue? Is there any leveling adjustment I can do myself? Thanks.
