The Tiffen 4 x 5.65" CC30Y Yellow filter is a colour compensation (or correction) filter used to make colour balance adjustments. It can be used to modify the colour balance of a scene by placing it in front of a light source or your camera lens. It can also be used to apply colour corrections when used in a darkroom with an enlarger or to help pre-visualise colour adjustments when reviewing prints.

Yellow is the opposite of blue and can be used to reduce blue tones or colour casts in a scene or print. This CC30 yellow is denser than a CC20 filter and less dense than a CC40 filter, and requires 0.3 stop compensation for normal exposure results.

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