The Tiffen 86mm Coarse Thread CC30R Red 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.

Red is the opposite of cyan and can be used to reduce cyan tones or casts within a scene or print. This red CC30 is more dense than a CC20 filter and less dense than a CC40 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, grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, then mounting to precision metal rings.

Q: 6. What is the filter thread size for the front of the Vivitar to add another filter or hood cap?

A: Sorry, this does not have any front filter threads to our understanding. What you may be discerning in the image are anti-refection ridges. In any event, the front diameter is unknown. (Sorry but we are unable to take the item from inventory and measure it ourselves.) As to a solution, I would suggest this. Once you get the Attachment, measure the front diameter. Then look for a match in our step up ring selection so that you attach that ring to the lens by tape. Now you have filter threads. It is not pretty but that is what I would have done on a movie set in order to get the shot.
