Yes
Went out with my welders glass today and shot a couple of 5 minute ish exposures.
But they are Green. Very very Green.
Anyone know why?
 
Because the glass is green! You'll either have to set-up some in camera white balancing or (easier) sort it in Lightroom or Photoshop.
 
I'd guess that welding glass is designed to block principally red/orange light, hence allowing mostly green transmission.
 
Craig next time take you first image, then use that as a custom white balance, problem solved they wont be green after that :thumbs: ps dont forget to change it back after your done with the welding glass shots
 
I took my first shots with welding glass the other day, I've never really used raw before, but even for me it was a 5 minute job to get the colours looking right (ish)! But now you see why a lot of the shots using welding glass are in black and white, or have slightly odd colouring!
