Ambient Blue Filter for a More Natural Look
Traditional strobes use light that is significantly warmer than the much cooler blue light of the ocean. The Ambient Blue Filter matches the color temperature of the surrounding water, making the strobe match the color of the surrounding ambient light. When shot with the Ambient Blue Filter, the Hybrid Flash fills the shadows of the image but does not add a different color to the scene. The Ambient Blue Filter is optimized for shooting at depths of 10-35 feet.

The Ambient Blue Filter even works in macro shots such as this jawfish shot, where bright reflective ambient light from the sand is mixing with the strobe light. With the ambient light being the same color as the strobe light, it blends together resulting in a more natural look.
