Gelatin filters. The commonest camera filters are thin pieces of dyed gelatin. They are easiest to make accurately, and offer the widest range of colours. Gelatin filters are cut to the required size and used in front of the lens in special holders. (...) As gelatin filters are very sensitive to mechanical injury, they should be carefully protected against scratches, dirt, dust and moisture. 1, record 16, English, - gelatin%20filter
