The Tiffen 4 x 5.65" CC40M Magenta Filter is a color compensating (or color correction) filter for use when making color balance adjustments. It can be used to alter the color balance of a scene by placing in front of a light source or the lens of your camera. It can also be used to apply color corrections when used in the darkroom with an enlarger or to help pre-visualize color adjustments when viewing prints.

Magenta is the opposite of green and can be used to reduce green tones or casts within a scene or print. This magenta CC40 is more dense than a CC30 filter and less dense than a CC50 filter, and requires a 0.6 stop compensation for normal exposure results.

Tiffen filters are made using ColorCore technology; a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass and grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. This filter measures 4 x 5.65" / 101.6 x 143.5mm.

Q: 10. I just purchased the Tamron 150-600 mm lens with the Lowepro case 11x26 which was recommended here. However, the lens is almost 2 longer than the case. The lens is 11.5 long without the hood and the inside length of the case is 9.5 . I also could not get the lens mount bracket into the case (case too narrow). What would be a better fit for this lens?

A: The OP/TECH USA Snoot Boot Wide Body (XXL) will be a better fit, as it is 12 in length. It is made out of neoprene, so it will be able to fit the lens comfortably.
