The Cinelux Lighting Filter, #382 Congo Blue (20 x 24" Sheet) from Rosco is part of a series of filters created for motion picture and television productions where large lighting fixtures are employed to create effects. This filter is produced using a specialized technology that insures the longest possible life under hot theatrical lights. The filter is general mounted within a frame and placed in front of a light source to create the desired effect. The three discrete layers from which they are made are combined by a tri-extrusion process. By sealing the colored layer between two microscopically thin layers of clear film, dye migration is minimized and effective life is extended.

I found instructions online explaining how to modify a digital camera to take infrared photos. One cheap camera + 30 minutes + this lovely blue filter and it works great!

question
How is this different than the LEE Filters CL181 Cool LED Congo Blue Gel Filter (21 x 24 ) ?
In comparison using swatches of each brand, the color is virtually the same. The difference is in terms of how the filters are produced. The Rosco Cinelux filters use a deep dye color process, where embedded dyes are melted together with a plastic base. The Lee Lighting Filters work off of the Cinemoid standard used in the earlier days of gel production. This involves a painted on color onto the plastic. Rosco does offer their E-Colour series which works on the same principle and filter code of the Lee filters. That would be the Rosco E-Colour #181 Congo Blue (21x24 Sheet) B&H # ROE181S, which is sold in quantities of 5 at this time. Please see the image below for reference.
