The ones I have are meant to have zero colour cast and it's difficult to detect any by visual inspection. But the stacking effect will certainly increase any colour cast, as you say. Back to the laboratory ....

Best practice would be to set white balance when adding the filter and of course, shooting RAW. While you're dialing in, perhaps shoot a gray card or color chart then using the color correction eyedropper tool when processing. You could then create a custom profile for the filter.

Happy experimenting!

That's a good thought, a custom WB profile for the filter. I've only done that in infrared before. Thanks for the suggestion. I do shoot RAW as a matter of course, and the samples I posted came from RAW files, so there shouldn't have been any JPG artefacts from the camera.
