Resin Camera Filters Click here to view "Before and After" samples. Technical Filters Colour Temperature Adjustment Filters A range of filters which are used to convert the colour temperature of a light source to balance with the film type in use, or to create an intentional warm or cool effect.
These filters reduce light transmission uniformly over the visible region of the spectrum, in definitive steps. Although used mainly in colour photography for reducing light levels without colour change, they can also be used for black and white photography. They are particularly useful for compensating for too much light, in circumstances where changing the shutter speed, aperture or film type is not possible or desirable. For example, exposure time can be increased to achieve special effects when photographing running water and waterfalls etc., without adjusting the aperture. In addition, depth of field can be reduced by increasing the aperture by the stop value of the filter used. For example, if the aperture is required to be f4 yet correct exposure is at f8 and the speed cannot be changed, a 0.6ND will allow the setting of the f4 aperture. Standard (Solid)

Flourescent Correction Filters This system offers filter solutions to many fluorescent correction problems. Both colour temperature conversion and green absorption functions are combined into one filter; the filter used will depend on the fluorescent light and film type.
A range of filters recommended for use either in front of or behind the lens. They control the spectrum by reducing the transmission at specific wavelengths. They are primarily used to colour balance films, the required filter being determined as a result of tests, or as specified by the manufacturer. They can also be useful for correcting light sources for which no one conversion filter exists, or for adding a deliberate colour bias. The values shown are approximate exposure increases to compensate for the filters used. 100mm x 100mm *** Click on the value to add to Shopping Cart ***
Ultra Violet Absorbing Filters A range of filters used to absorb varying amounts of ultra violet radiation which can cause haze or bluish cast in distant landscapes, scenes over water, and aerial photography.
Filters for Black and White Photography The table below details the results achieved using the black and white filter range. All descriptions refer to the filter's effect when used with black and white film (except where noted). Samples Below.

Effect Filters
These high quality glass filters manage the waveforms of light travelling to the camera from most reflective surfaces. Glare and reflected light can be altered by rotation of the polarising filter. The effect can be seen through the lens of the reflex cameras as the filter is rotated. When used outside on sunny days, polarising filters have the effect of saturating colours and deepening blue skies. They can also be used in conjunction with other filters (although the polariser should always be placed in front of polyester filters to ensure it functions correctly). Polarising filters are available in two types, linear and circular. This is not referring to the physical shape of the filter but to the way the filter changes the light waves thereby achieving the polarising effect. The type of polariser required (linear or circular) depends entirely on the type of camera the photographer is using. Modern reflex cameras with autofocus or complex metering systems, if used with a polariser, will only function correctly when a circular polariser is used. Manual focus cameras of all types can normally be used with either a linear or a circular type. Both linear and circular polarisers are available from Lee Filters in both a rotating 105mm diameter version and a 100x100mm square version. 100mm square polarisers are to be used in the filter holder, the entire holder is then rotated to achieve the correct effect. Recommended for studio use or for when only the polariser and, possibly, standard filters are to be used.
105mm rotating polarisers are attached to the filter system via a special ring that is fitted to the front of the holder. This allows the polariser to be rotated independently of any grads used and is ideal for landscape photography where extra flexibility is required.
The glass enhancer offered by Lee Filters enhances mostly the red and orange elements in the spectrum by accentuating the other colours. Ideal for use in landscapes and some types of architectural photography, it causes many unusual effects with different types of light. Viewing the subject through the filter first, without mounting on the lens, helps to identify which parts of the picture will be affected.
The LEE Glass Soft Focus filter gives a gentle, flattering effect, which is not obviously noticeable unless compared with an unfiltered shot. It has minimal effect on contrast and does not overpower the image. Changes in aperture or focal length will not have an adverse effect. As well as being used indoors the LEE Glass Soft Focus Filter can be used just as well outdoors by landscape photographers. It can be used to soften foreground objects and can give a pleasing almost 3D effect to the image.
