Tip

I have had an original 3x3 gel sheet Kodak #90 filter for over 30 years now. I trimmed it down and mounted it in a 120/220-size transparency mount and kept it in its original envelope (the slide is easier to remove and replace than the bare gel). I've keep it in its envelope when not in actual use as gels can fade. It works as everyone from A.A. onward has reported, and with care it will last for a long time.

The Wratten 90 viewing filter helps you visualize what a scene will render as black and white. Treat it gently, but use it to take your creative visualization to a new level.

question

I imagine this is just a piece of plastic. Do you suggest a way that I can mount it so that I can carry it in my pocket while photographing?
Asked by: Anonymous
Gel filters such as this one are made out of gelatin and are not rigid like plastic. I would not advise carrying this type of filter in your pocket, as they scratch quite easily.
