LEE Filters - 204 Full CTO, komplette Roll
Transform your lighting environment with unparalleled precision and consistency using the LEE Filters 204 Full CTO correction gel. Designed for discerning professionals in film, television, photography, and theatrical productions, this full roll of colour temperature orange (CTO) filter material is the essential tool for accurately converting daylight-balanced light sources to match tungsten or incandescent light, ensuring seamless integration and natural skin tones. Crafted with LEE Filters' renowned commitment to quality, the 204 Full CTO roll provides expansive coverage for a multitude of lighting fixtures, offering superior heat resistance and excellent colour rendition throughout its lifespan.
COLOUR CORRECTION PERFORMANCE
The LEE Filters 204 Full CTO is engineered to provide a complete colour temperature shift, effectively reducing the colour temperature of daylight (typically 5500K-6500K) to approximately 3200K, closely mimicking the warm glow of tungsten light sources. This precise conversion is crucial for achieving consistent colour balance when mixing daylight and tungsten lights, or when using daylight-balanced fixtures to emulate tungsten. Its consistent spectral transmission ensures that colours under the corrected light appear natural and vibrant, free from unwanted shifts or casts. The filter maintains a high level of clarity, allowing maximum light transmission while delivering the desired colour transformation, making it indispensable for achieving a harmonious visual aesthetic across diverse lighting scenarios.
DURABILITY AND RELIABILITY
Manufactured from robust, high-quality polyester material, the LEE Filters 204 Full CTO is built to withstand the rigorous demands of professional production environments. Its exceptional heat resistance allows for prolonged use with powerful lighting fixtures without degradation, ensuring consistent performance and extending the filter's operational life. The material is also highly resilient against tearing and creasing, simplifying handling and installation on a variety of frames and barndoors. This combination of material strength and thermal stability guarantees that the colour correction remains precise and reliable, even under challenging conditions on set or stage.
VERSATILITY AND APPLICATION
The complete roll format of the LEE Filters 204 Full CTO offers ultimate flexibility for a wide range of applications. It can be cut to custom sizes to fit virtually any light fixture, from small LED panels and portable fresnels to large HMI and continuous light sources. This versatility makes it an ideal choice for both studio and location work, enabling lighting designers and cinematographers to quickly adapt to changing conditions and achieve desired aesthetic outcomes. Whether balancing interior and exterior light, creating dramatic sunset effects, or ensuring accurate skin tones under mixed lighting, the 204 Full CTO provides the adaptability and performance required for professional-grade results in film, video, and still photography.
CLASSIFICATION
The LEE Filters 204 Full CTO in a complete roll format falls squarely into the category of professional lighting gels and colour correction filters. It is specifically designed as a primary colour temperature conversion filter, serving the critical function of transforming higher colour temperature light sources to match the warmer characteristics of tungsten illumination. This product is a fundamental tool for gaffers, lighting technicians, cinematographers, and photographers who require precise control over colour temperature in their lighting setups. Its broad applicability across various production scales, from independent film shoots to large-scale broadcast productions and theatrical performances, underscores its status as an industry-standard consumable. The "complete roll" designation further positions it as a bulk supply item, catering to professionals who frequently use CTO correction and require the flexibility to custom-cut gels for numerous fixtures or large diffusion frames. As such, it is not merely an accessory but a core component of professional lighting kits, essential for achieving consistent colour rendition and a visually cohesive lighting design.
