[net.rec.photo] Free Filter Information

wdr (03/23/83)

Both the COKIN book and a very nice one by HOYA are marked with a nominal
fee, but most dealers of these brands of filters will give you one if they
think you may buy filters from them. 

The HOYA book includes a nomography for lighting/filtration/film-sensitivty
to determine Color Compensation filtration when the light source 'color 
temperature' doesn't match the film's. Very useful.   

Producers of other lines of filters produce similar books.  UNDERGROUND CAMERA,
Foxboro, MA, mail-order and Boston area stores, imports the MARUMI slip-on,
twist off filters and a similar free booklet.
