The Rollei R5 (Mired) color conversion filter is recommended to warm up areas in shadow and for altitude higher than 2500m, it also blocks UV rays; it requires -0,5 exposure increasing. The following two photographs were taken with the 2.8C Xenotar, Kodak Ektar color negative film and the Rollei R5 filter, its effect is appreciable since I used it for the sunlight. Color conversion filters are not so necessary for color negs since colors can be corrected via filtering (or playing with the white balance and others color parameters for the digital image), they are more necessary for slides, anyway they are good for negs because you have corrected or with the effect you wanted for the photograph from the beginning: http://www.flickr.com/photos/itarfoto/6181054395/in/photostream http://www.flickr.com/photos/itarfoto/6181055689/in/photostream/ Carlos --- Rollei List - Post to rollei_list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx - Subscribe at rollei_list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'subscribe' in the subject field OR by logging into www.freelists.org - Unsubscribe at rollei_list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the subject field OR by logging into www.freelists.org - Online, searchable archives are available at //www.freelists.org/archives/rollei_list
