Ideal for portraiture, the 812 Warming Filter from Tiffen is used to improve skin tones when working in cool lighting conditions. This filter offers a greater warming effect than a skylight 1-A filter and is well-suited for use outdoors on overcast days or on sunny days when working in open shade. It can also be used to absorb the strong blue cast of an electronic flash for more balanced, lifelike skin tones.
The filter is constructed using Tiffen's ColorCore technology, which involves lamenting the filter material between two pieces of optical glass, grounding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, and mounting within an aluminum alloy ring.
TIP HOW TO PROLONGING THE LIFE OF YOUR FILTERS
Filters, like all crafted optics, are susceptible not only to breakage, but to premature aging caused by environmental factors. Most filters are made up of several layers of materials consisting of glass, dyes, optical cements, chemical compounds, particles etc. Even with protective measures employed, there are many factors that can still affect the longevity of the filter: moisture (prolonged exposure to humidity), excessive heat and excessive light are the most common environmental causes that can affect the filter’s chemistry over time.
To
protect your filters and keep them in great woring condition for a
long time (along with the rest of your camera gear) we recommend making
sure to keep the filters stored in a dark, cool, and dry place when not
in use. The use of filter pouches or specialized cases will also keep
your filters safe from breakage when not in use. If you are in a humid
environment, the addition of fresh silica gel packs or a dehumidifier in
the room they are stored is also highly recommended. Protecting your
filters as you would your camera lenses will ensure many years of use of
your filters.
What do you recommend cleaning filters with?
Hand
blower first, if it's just light dust,that usually handles it. If you
need to clean further, a Kim Wipe sprayed with Tiffen/Pancro Lens
Cleaner, work in a circular motion from the middle out.
