Hello reefers,
Alright so this is my second video about orange filters:



I compare the orange filter with:
- A Prototype
- K&F Concept: https://amzn.to/2M2XgDH
- Tiffen 85 67mm: https://amzn.to/3hiFBDr
- Tiffen 85-B 67mm: https://amzn.to/37LfWjK

I bought them on Amazon and compare so you don't have to lose money as I did lol.

There's a variation of optic between each one of them, Tiffen are the one with keeping a good sharpness and contrast, but they weren't made for Reef Aquarium

Great job on this video! Thank you!

I have been debating on a filter for my DSLR and it looks like I might need to pick up the 85B in 100mmx100m format to use with my Lee holder.

Hmm, not sure it work with a lee holder (?) I don't think it was made for that. I think they use rectangular/square glass,, but I don't, never tried this before. Let me know what the result are, curious!

This is the one that I was referring to. The thing that I don't like is that it's also a .6 ND combo, but I'm sure the threaded variety is close to the same.

I could also go with the Lee filter. I saw some other cheaper brands in the 100mmx100mm format, but I know buying a 16+ filter set for under $40 is going to be a waste of money.

I decided to stop buying threaded filters years back due to the lack of versatility between lenses.

Wow, super impressive job, very polished review and love the attention to detail. Thank you very much for this, it's very cool to see what proper approach to photography can bring to the hobby!
