3000 vs 3200 Tungsten Light

[J. Anthony Gonzales]

I brought this up in a B/W thread, but I am curious as pertains to color film. Kodak recomends a 82B filter when shooting tungsten film under 3000 lights. Just curious how much "redder than normal" will it look without the filter?

 

Thanks,

It'll look a little warmer, but not drastic. I think that's probably about the smallest color temp difference that you would notice, in all honesty.

No one would bother filtering the camera for such a small color temp difference unless they were shooting color reversal and were projecting the original, such as for slide photography.

The amount of color you see in the filter approximates the color difference you would see without correction. Such a small change is easily corrected during color timing/grading of a color negative.
