The Tiffen 3 x 3" Decamired Red .2 Warming Glass Filter - For those who want a sure-fire way of getting accurate color temperature readings, the decamired system is the way to go. Using this formula, you can transpose temperatures from one point to another easily and quickly. This system is also useful when you wish to bring a certain amount of creativity to color photography.

Applications include keeping color temperature constant during the course of the day and producing the effect of different times of day. Available in two series, reddish filters that warm the light and bluish filters that cool the light. Each series contains 4 densities: 1.5, 3, 6, and 12. Filters in the same series can be combined.

Decamired filters are designed to more easily handle unusual color temperature variations than the previously mentioned filters. Available in increments of both a red and a blue series, Decamired filters can be readily combined to create almost any required correction. In measuring the color temperature of the light source, and comparing it to that for which the film was designed, we can predict the required filtration fairly well.

A filter that produces a color temperature change of 100K at 3400K will produce a change of 1000K at 10,000K. This is because the filter relates to a visual scale of color. It will always produce the same visible difference. A color change of 100K at the higher temperature would hardly be noticed.

Calculations
To use this concept, subtract the mired value of the light source from that of the film. If the answer is positive, you need a reddish filter; if negative, use a bluish filter. Mired-coordinated filters are termed as decamireds. Mired value divided by ten yields decamireds. The 60 mired shifts, above, would be produced by an R6 filter, where the higher values were that of the lighting.

Sets of such filters generally come in values of 1.5, 3, 6, and 12 decamireds in both B (bluish) and R (reddish) colors. These numbers are additive; that is, a pair of R3's produces an R6. An R6 plus a B6 cancel each other out to produce a neutral gray.

The decamired system has an advantage over the Kelvin system in that the Kelvin scale is not linear

Decamired readings provide more accurate/controllable readings than Kelvin

The difference between the Mired value of the film and the Mired value of the light is the Mired value of the correction filter that correctly tailors the light to the film

Q: 1. Is the included control cable in this kit (9 pin or 4 pin)?

A: It is a 5-Pin to 9-Pin LEMO-Type Control Cable.

Q: 2. Does this kit include RED Komodo control and the required cables?

A: No it does not include the control for the RED Komodo. The link below is the kit you would need instead: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1616857-REG/smallhd_mon_cine_7_komodo_cine_7_red_komodo.html?sts=pi&pim=Y

Q: 3. What's the difference between Cine version and Indie version?

A: The Cine 7 is a significantly brighter display at 1800 nits of brightness vs the Indie 7 at 1000 nits of brightness. The Cine 7 has a larger color space (covers 100% of DCI-P3) vs Indie 7 (100% of Rec 709) Both monitors are excellent choices for the Red Komodo and share the but the Cine 7 is a brighter and more accurate monitor than the Indie 7.

Q: 4. Will a 12.3 in surface 7 fit the the tablet compartment?

A: No, the 12.3" surface is too large for this bag.

Q: 5. Can either of the side pouches hold a water bottle?

A: The Think Tank Photo Mirrorless Mover 25i Camera Bag (Dark Blue) side pouches can hold a small water bottle.

Q: 6. Will this also work with the Atomos Shogun Inferno? What file formats will the Samsung T5 Msata drive support?

A: No. The following unit is designed and made to attach directly to the slot on the back of the NINJA V unit. ExFAT is compatible with both Windows and Mac OS X so is a good choice when customers are working on Windows or working between Windows and Mac OS X platforms as both platforms natively will read the disk.

Q: 7. Is it possible to buy more dividers?

A: Think Tank would be the one to ask. I use combinations of 3 lenses and 2 bodies and two dividers is all that I regularly use and there was one or two more that seldom or ever use.

Q: 8. Will the RED controls work with a DSMC 1 cameras?

A: Unfortunately it will not. The control kit, BH #SMSFWREDCK, is only for DSMC2 Cameras. It does not work with DSMC 1 cameras.

Q: 9. Is it compatible with Bolt 4K?

A: this is built with the BOLT 500 transmitter and hence is compatible with receivers that work with the BOLT 500 transmitter
