Hello,
I'm looking for a way to increase the temperature of color of my pictures. When I use the "warming flter" it modify too much the colors, is there a dedicated filter for that?
Thanks for any help.

How are you shooting? RAW, or in jpeg or TIF?

If it's RAW, you can change the color temp when opening the image - either in Photoshop RAW or your camera's conversion software.

If it's jpeg or TIF, then you need to get a list of color correction filters and their purposes - not just for warming (say, for example an 812 for shade to look normal warm) but complete color correction (blue filters to counter shooting in tungsten/quartz, magenta filters for shooting in flourescent light, etc.).

Do you have anything specific you're looking for?
