Batmancaver Posted February 4, 2006 Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 Hi, I have a Clulite CB that I want to fit a red filter to for night-time shooting. I have tried lamping with the lamp unfiltered but the rabbits on my stalk just run away as soon as |I switch the damm thing on! :< Does anyone know where you can get suitable filter material from? Also what 'grade/density' of filter material is best for a 1,000,000 candle power lamp? Cheers Karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNAKEBITE Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 As an emergency make do meaure you can always try the "red celophane sweet wrapper" fix. It is Heath Robinson BUT Ihave used it and it does work well if you have nothing else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sutty Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 Batmancaver, I used some filter material given to me by a mate for my 1.000.000 cp lamp, he works for a lighting co that maintain theatres/drama spotlights and the like. I use the red and it works fine. a bit of DIY and its sorted. PM me your address and i'll stick you some in the post mate!

(And ofcourse if lamping it's best not to have the light on for longer than 5 seconds anyway so shouldn't be a problem!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
