Thread: A Color A Day - Lee Filters

  1. #1

    Default A Color A Day - Lee Filters

    I know that many others have done similar examples of their favorite Lee filters with the white LEDs, however, not too many (or any?) of them posted the full range of colors and the names of the filters for those who are just starting out.

    I wanted to show the full range of colors and to give the names of the filters both for those who already have them and for those who are contemplating color filters instead of a single color blade. However, there are so many that it would take months to photograph and label them all; so I thought, why not do it like a page-a-day calendar. Perhaps when it's finished I could compile it all together by color, but for now it will be random, and thus, perhaps, a little more fun. I suppose I might take recommendations, too...

    I will post one picture in full light, and one in complete darkness. All photos are taken for the color of the blade, and I found the best representation I can get is with auto focus and HDR settings on my iPhone5. It gets REALLY close to the actual color, especially if you look at the light splotch on the back wall.

    Finally, please note that my saber is running two Rebel whites off of a WWW Tri-Rebel, so there may be some minor illumination discrepancies with only one die.

    JADE

    One of my favorites! A great shade of cyan.

    Not to hijack this thread if you didn't want any chatter, but as someone who's considering using a white LED and filters in a future build just for the sake of getting some unique "off-colors," I'm really looking forward to this. Thanks Ky!
    That jade is a win for me already!

    I don't mind at all! This is exactly what I started this thread for.

    Just Blue

    This is a very nice deep blue. It can be a little dark in direct light, but it's not bad at all. One of my favorites.

    VANITY FAIR

    A very, very bright neon pink. If I ever used a pink saber, it'd be this one. Get the bad guy confused for sure.

    I'd like to suggest Lee 767 Oklahoma Yellow...very nice bright sunny yellow ideal for KOTOR Jedi Sentinel sabers.

    YELLOW

    It's not Oklahoma Yellow, but I had the picture on hand...

    It got a little green in the dark shot, couldn't fix it.

    MAGICAL MAGENTA

    This is the brightest shade of magenta I have found so far.
