How do normal acrylic filter lenses work
-Acrylic filter lenses that we use for taking aquarium photos are primarily in yellow or orange colors.
-They work by filtering out the blue spectrum of color, like the 400-420nm near-UV, the deep blue, royal blue, and even some cyan.
-The higher the Light Transmission Factor (LTF), the more blue spectrum light can get through the lens.
-The yellow lens allows some of the violets and blue gets through while the orange lens basically filters out all the violet, blue and cyan (aka High-Energy Visible light or HEV light).
-When using these filter lenses to take photos, while the photos no longer washed out in blue, the filter lenses also eliminated all the fluorescent "pop" in your corals.
-Basically it doesn't matter what kind of acrylic filter lenses or any of the filter app used, they basically work in the same principle - by eliminating some or all the HEV blue light.
Filter Lens with Monomer Coating
Over the years, we at Maxspect have been searching for the holy grail of filter lenses, one that will filter out the HEV blue light but not the fluorescent "pop" color created by near-UV light.
And we have finally found it - filter lenses with a blue monomer coating. Monomer coated filter lenses are much paler in the yellow tone compared to regular acrylic filter lenses. This is because the blue filter monomer coating reflects away a percentage of HEV blue light.
