One thing you might want to do before "finalizing" your shot, is comparing the colors/appearance of it with other existing shots, that way you'll know when you got it right... wink

Advice on IDAS LPS (or Lumicon)

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo

IMHO, the IDAS LPS is the one you want... as it is designed for LP control... without affecting color.
