This is straight export to Lightroom, 35mm Ultron at F4 with a Leica Red filter.   The Red filter is the most difficult to simulate using a color camera, as only 25% of the pixels end up getting use

No need to sell anything Jaaaf....................I was smart when I bought my dry box and bought a massive one so plenty of room to keep sh^t. I am excited to try out the yellow/orange filters on my MM I hope I can remember to take them off if I put the lens on my Sony a7ii as that probably wouldn't work so well or would it??

You get very strange colour shifts if you forget to remove them, very hard to correct in postprocessing. However, if you convert to B&W it is not a problem.

I see;...........I have a terrible memory and could quite easily forget to remove the filter. I shot with my Noctilux at night one night and couldn't understand why I needed auto ISO until I got up in the morning and saw the ND filter still on the lens.....silly me :)
