I like this topic. Obviously. Kham, have you ever tried adding yellow filters to a SY LED? I wonder if you could tweak the yellow or it would just filter out too much of the brightness...

If they made SY a single LED instead of an RGB, they could make variants using more green and orange. IDK if the filters would translate but tweaking the RGB LED would be achievable.

I wish I knew how to tweak them. With my luck, I'd cause more damage than just buying the filters.

Exactly, popping in a filter I can handle - reprogramming an LED? Not gonna happen.

YES!!! This is sooooo Tasty. Now there are four Yellow shades! This deserves points. Kham I knew you'd be all over this thread, lol. We need more fans. I think I'm going to start a Fire Orange Order, who wants to join the Grey side of the Force.

Um... y'all know you can tweak RGB colors like yellow with Lee filters, right? I can go from an emerald green to Sithy red with my Liberator. Goldish colors are indeed possible with the filters, to answer the specific question I saw on this thread. For samples, look here: http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=4962.0

Not so much on joining a Fire Orange Order but I think it would be cool to have an order for everyone's favorite color. Kham of course is the King of Yellow. You could take the Fire Orange and I would love to see one dedicated to Arctic and Guardian Blue.

GB would be MAV. CG would be Master Nero.

Flash-on pics in a day or two. Batteries need freshening and I want to set up my tripod for (non-shaky) no-flash pics.
I think I like Oklahoma the best so far. Burnt is nice, more golden but the Oky is brilliant. I tested the combo last (actually a day later after some run time) and while the batteries aren't dead yet, fresh batteries would give a color with 2 filters a needed boost. There is a noticeable dimming in person (not as evident in pictures) with 2 filters. Not bad but it's there.
I just had a great idea for storing filters, unless someone beat me to it, in that case, I just took someone's great idea for storing filters... I have an old hockey card binder and a crapload of blank 9-up sheets. The swatches fit almost perfectly. Only problem I see is that they're not bound in numerical order so it'll take awhile to put them in order.
I'd like to get a good background (maybe some white posterboard? black? suggestions?) and set up the camera on a tripod with identical pics and start going thru the swatchbook, obviously a long term project but sounds cool. Yes, I would start with the yellows.
BTW, after all of this, I still think I'm going to order a SY module, if anything to use as a control for comparisons.

Black and white are good so long as the background inst reflective. I usually do my pictures on my bed which has a satin top sheet. I just recently took some pictures so I'll post them to compare to. Satin Sheet. Matte Comforter cover. Up close. It looks to be that SY is closest to Burnt Yellow.

Very nice Jedi Hound. Will you be able to do some shades of red or other colours? This really sells the use of Lee filters.
