I just learned this from talking to someone. I just bought a camera a while back and I am investing in a macro lens. Well talking to him he mentioned this filter to filter out blue light instead of using white balance.
This is the one he suggested for my camera:

There is a whole list of these to do different things.

After hearing this I started thinking..
This allows you to crank up the blue leds so the coral fluoresces and filter out the blue, well actually add red back in. It also says it increases contrast.
Started me wondering about all these unnatural picks out there through a few vendors lately. They say their pics are not altered with Photoshop which technically is true and this is actually what they look like which technicality again is true..
Anyway anyone used this filter? Anyone have pictures with it?
Seems revolutionary for taking pictures of a reef?
I think I might buy one when I get my macro lens.
So hard with leds to get shots under blue.
