On the mired scale, a plus shift value means thefilter is moving toward yellowish, and a minus value means the filterwill give a blue shift. When combining filters, you add the miredvalues to determine the final result.What “Color Balance” Means in Film Stock satingand adapting, no color film can accurately reproduce colorunder all kinds of lighting conditions.
