Hi: I won the 4 Orphek lens filters here but have yet to try the. I have a question as to their use with a digital camera. \mine is a Pentax that with the correct lenses it is auto focus. My question is will this function properly with the filter over the lens? The other thought is to put the filters over the flash Thoughts

i don't believe these lenses will fit over that specific camera, but i could be wrong. i'd stick to using them for their applied function, which would be on an cellphone.

I checked and there is only one lens that is the correct size. You are probably correct
 
So am doing this after it being suggested but not an emergency #reefsquad . I need some advice on using Orphek filters which I won in a draw here with my digital camera. Mine is a Pentax the lenses are auto focus if they are meant for a Pentax. I bought it because I can still use my expensive Vivitar lenses as well but manual focus. The question is will the auto focus work with the filters mounted on the lens. Alternately could I hold the filters over the flash? or just provide alternate lighting. I don't know what others do

Regards Wally
 
This doesn’t go over a flash or a standard digital camera. it goes over a cell phone camera. Set your leds to blue dominant, tiny bit of white. Put the lens on the cell camera and snap a pic

Just when I have the lights programed the way I like using my Apogee. Not good news but obviously cannot argue. Maybe I can shut my lights off and have one dedicated for photo shoots any other thoughts to work around that issue?

What lights do you have?
 
2 Aquanest on My 90, and a Razor on my small tank
Do you have a preset you can switch to for photos? Otherwise, evening time should ramp down and light can be blue dominant before bed. That’s prime picture time. I take a lot of pics. Ambient light in the room affects them. Best time for pics is when it’s night time, and the lights are out in the room - to eliminate reflections, glare, and other light affecting your camera.
