Gel Filter - Is there an I-Phone App for This?

I ask because I am having trouble finding these Gel Filters that people use to make Coral Pictures look better under Blue Light.

So Somebody told me to buy this App for 0.99 so I did but it does nothing but show colors.

It does not work with pictures.

So now I am out Money and Still have No Gel Filters

Please Help.

Those are the gel filters I bought but looks like they're sold out atm though.

If you can find some they work awesome.

This is for a DSLR. I don't know if it's technically a gel filter, but it's what WWC recommended:

Thanks for all the Tips Everyone.

I was kind of hoping to get one right away though (Buy at a Brick and Mortor store like Walmart).

Does anybody know of any stores that sell them so I can get it today?

Anybody know of an App on my Phone that will do it?

Anybody have a Phone App for Gel Filters?

That would be the easiest way to do it.

I don't know if any apps that do a good job. As for finding them locally I think it would be difficult. You can try a photography shop if you have one local but the hard part will be finding the right colors. They come in literally hundreds if not thousands of colors.

There is no "gel filter app".

I don't think any apps do it, your best bet is go to a LFS and buy some coral glasses, then just take pictures through those.

nope. cameras dont work that way. The blue spectrum is just too much. Amber orange are what you need to look for.(opposite of blue) A camera store may have some but they are $5 ea or more.
The multi pack is great as BLUE may contain different spectrum's and one combination(amber is multi colored orange is a specific frequency) may work better than another depending on what light you have.

if you have led youll have much better luck in photography adjusting the white blue ratio. unless you run 14k white(not actually white eh?) and blues.

OR find some very orange/yellow "driving" glasses at Walmart . I've never done it but in a pinch they might work.

Great point, I recently swapped from LEDs to T5s and a MH and now have to use different shades of filters then I did before.

What Color Should I Get if I find them?

There is no "gel filter app".

You would think somebody would have made one by now?

They would make alot of money on the App.

They Say "There is an App for Everything"

Apparantly they are Wrong
