Got my first Rolleicord Va...And now some questions.

[vegard_dino]

Hello all.

I have got, it is in the mail now, my first Rolleicord, a model Va in good condition, just serviced and adjusted.
So, I am so happy to try out medium formate and TLR at the same time

But, filters, how about them? Do I NEED that?
I will do slide film and color film, some indoor and more outdoors.

Also, I have ordered a hood for the camera.

Thank you all for tip and help.

You might want to consider a UV haze filter. Just for a bit of extra clarity in your color film.

Ok, thank you for the information.
How about those colored filters?

[DPurdy]

You said you are going to shoot color film so color filters will change the color of your picture. There is a large variety of color filters. Mostly colored filters are considered for black and white film because changing the color can change the contrast. There are some very lightly colored filters that can slightly warm or slightly cool the color of color film.
Positive film (slide film) is color balanced for either using with day light or with incandescent light. If you are shooting a daylight positive film indoor with incandescent light there is a color filter made to correct it. And the same is true if you are shooting a film designed for incandescent light when you are outside there is a filter to correct the color. The color correction filters for using the wrong film are pretty deep color so they make you slow your shutter or open your fstops quite a bit.

Thanks for the information.
Oh, then I will stay away from the colored lenses.
The film I will shoot is colored and slide film.
Maybe even more slide, it is just so great to project photos.

But, the hood is on its way.

Thank you all for helping me.
