Platinum ND

[Lee Kelly]

This may have been covered 45000000 times but I always struggle with the search function on here so...

Schneider Platinum ND filters. For me they always tend to give a bit of a green tint to my Epic footage, whereas on Alexa they look pretty neutral. My questions are;
Is it a nightmare for colourists to fix the slight green tint on Epic footage, meaning I should throw away my platinums and buy different IRND filters? If so, anyone want to suggest where I can get these in 82mm and 77mm screw on style?
Anyone with Dragon has the similar green tint with platinum IRND with the new camera? Again, anyone have any suggestions as to which IRND to invest in for Dragon?

Thanks for your help.

Good news for Dragon users is that there is virtually no IR contamination. Meaning, regular ND filters are the way to go.

There is no reason to think it would be much work fixing green tinting for any colorist. You can probably set it in camera

Absolutely No need for IRND filters for Dragon, just plain ND's.

In fact Dragon does simply NOT need IR filtration, as it does it already, and if you make use of the Motion Mount then there is even less of a need for , as that too has an IR filtration within it's Linear polarizer.
