I'm having a brain fart. :bang:
I typically use Tri-X on my cameras. Rated 200.
Fine on a GSN. When I want to use an Orange filter, that is a factor of 1 I believe which is 2 stops. So....does that mean I put my ASA dial on 50?
asa 200
1 stop=100
2 stop= 50

Usually, the meter inside the camera takes care of the compensation so I don't have to think.

That's what I tought. I don't know why I was having a hard time figuring it out.
