It is often necessary to bring into playboth the influences previously referred to,namely, to use not only the speciallysensitive plate, but a suitable screen Bausch and Lomb Ray Filter () is a very convenient arrangement forsecuring a colour screen of any desiredtint or depth. It consists of two thinpieces of optically worked glass betweenwhich is cemented a glass ring, thus.

Theglass portion is mounted in a metal ringwith screws for attaching to the speaking, a very pale screenis sufficient, and it is safer always toemploy one of this character. It mustbe understood, however, that the depthof the screen is dependent upon (a) thecharacter of the subject, or its combina-tion of colours, and (b) the special sensi-tiveness of the plate. It will be necessary,therefore, to make a few experiments witha view to finding the exact depth of tintrequired to produce a certain effect witha certain plate.
