[LargeFormat] Filters

Hi Tori,
    I use gels behind the lens.  I use them like that because I have several
different lens diameters with the different lenses that I use.  I have a
roll of the paper that has a glue or waxy substance that I peel off the
paper and attach it to the non-glass part of the lens and then install the
lens.  Sometimes I take the back off the camera and go in there.  Seems to
work just fine.  I have several yellow and orange and red filters.
