A Tiffen 4.5" FL-B Filter is used to correct the color balance when shooting tungsten film under fluorescent lighting.

An FL-W filter is used to balance daylight film under warm white or white type fluorescent lamps. Tiffen FL-D filter is used when you wish to correct for the greenish tone that appears when shooting daylight film under general purpose fluorescent lighting. 

Fluorescent lamps burn at many different temperatures and often require more demanding filtration for exact results. For specific filtration and professional use, it is strongly recommended that a color temperature meter be employed along with Color Correction filters (i.e.CC30M) when shooting under fluorescent lighting. This is the only proven way to achieve exact color correction.

Q: 4. Hello, from Adelaide, Australia.I am seeking an external battery power supply for the Olympus FL-50R flash unit, which either plugs into the socket located at the lower front of the FL-50R unit, or the similar socket located on the side of the FP-1 Flash Power Grip. Olympus used to have a SHV-01 battery unit but is now discontinued. Do you have a replacement unit, such as a GODOX or similar, to provide this function? Alternatively, please advise if the METZ connector is the same. These unique connectors provide a dual power supply of 6 and 300 volts. Hope you can assist.Best regards,Geoff.
