Rosco gel #'s for Arista V54 tube

[Dan Henderson]

Does anyone happen to know the Rosco gel numbers for the correct blue and green filters to split grade print with the V54 tube? I can't find a correlation on their web site to the filter numbers I'm accustomed to (i.e. #58 green and #69 blue.)

Thanks in advance!

Rosco 68 Sky Blue and 389 Chroma Green

From my notes. At least in general. I don't think the V54 really matters.

BTW you can check the curves on their website.

Not exactly what you are looking for, but PhotoTechniques magazine has an article by Howard Bond a few years ago about using Roscoe filters for VC printing. You can find the back issue here:
