LiNHOF YELLOW FILTER YFNL1 EXPOSURE COMPENSATION

[ghe67]

Hi guys, I have a new Linhof yellow filter and I want to shoot some photos to test it but I've not found the filter factor or the exposure compensation. does anyone know about this filter?
On the box is marked YFLN1, so I think would be a factor 1 filter so 0.5 stop compensation?
Any help?
Thanks
Giorgio

Not very new. The last catalog number was 002060. 1 is the designation. It is a yellow1 filter. 1 is not the filter factor (and a factor of 1 would mean no compensation is needed. A UV is also a factor of 1.) What you have is a yellow 5 (light yellow) and the filter factor is about 1.5 to 2x. Or 1/2 to 1 stop.
