81A
It's Autumn. The clouds are low hanging and the sky is "patchy blue." You've gone for a ride upstate to the mountains and the light in open shade is bluish. A photo taken of your girlfriend with daylight balanced film leaning against the side of a barn will yield bluish tones that she might not find particularly flattering. An 81A filter will replace some of the yellow missing from the image and bring her skin tones back to a more appealing level.

Uses
Good for general scenics when the photographer wishes to remove the bluish cast from open shade or just add warmth to the photograph
Converts tungsten 3200K film to 3400K lighting
Tiffen's ColorCore glass is sealed between two optical glass sheets. In this way, Tiffen can better control the various densities of their filters and thereby create more exact degrees of filtration. This process makes for greater accuracy of color as opposed to glass that is simply dyed and become subject to deviation during the dye process
