Ben P Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Dear All, Has anyone had any experience of using the lee 241-243 range of florry gels? I am lighting a room in a show that needs to be lit with only the tubes on show but obviously need to cheat in other stuff, but want to keep it in the same colour temp range? Would perhaps go down the 200-202 route, but cant as that's used for another bit later. Thoughts anyone?! Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Lee Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 I thought that was really only neccassary for camera work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grahame Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Yeah, I've used 241 & 243 before to create an 'office lighting' effect. It does create the right sort of colour feel, but doesn't do a lot for skin tones, it has to be said.... :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam FitzG Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Evening,The Lee 241-243 are for converting tungsten source to emulate fluorescent. You need the Lee minus green (which is pale pink) 247-249 for converting fluorescent to daylight, or Lee plus 244 - 246 & 278 - 279 for converting daylight to fluorescent; which ever is your preference.I would go for the very palest available, the heavy corrections are usually unnecessary. Liam Edit>>> And then of course you may need to correct the daylight to tungston depending which colour temp you want to work in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
