Used on lighting to eliminate unwanted green cast created by discharge light sources on film. Approximately equivalent to CC075 magenta camera filter.
What you'd use it for
Magenta correction that cancels the green spike from fluorescent tubes, mercury vapour and some LED fixtures. Match the strength to the source: full for a bad tube, an eighth for a barely-there cast. It's a light gel — reckon on about ⅓ stop.
