Q: 6. Using flash outdoors (flash dialled 1 stop brighter than sun), id like to reduce the blue saturation of the ambient daylight (in a colour image, not B&W) will this filter reduce/mute/gray the blue saturation? If anyone has tried this, can you please direct me to an example image? Thanks everyone!

A: Colored filters are usually meant to be used to change the contrast in black and white photography. If you were to use a yellow filter while shooting color, the whole picture will have a yellow cast. The best way to reduce the blue saturation would be to either overexpose the sky, or ideally in post production you can under-saturate the blues.

Q: 7. Is there any light loss?

A: From testing in the store, we saw no visible change in exposure, likely indicating a 1x filter factor and almost complete light transmission (minus any potential loss from coatings and glimmerglass particulates).

Q: 8. Will this fit a 65mm lens?

A: No.

Q: 9. hi thereis this comptatible with canon 5d mark III?tx

A: The Tiffen 82mm FL-D Flourescent Glass Filter for Daylight Film is designed to prevent color casting on color film, and is unnecessary for digital cameras such as the Canon 5D Mark III. To avoid color cast from flourescent lights with your camera, simply change the white balance to flourescent lighting.
