The contrast and brightness with the red gel isn't as good as I remembered, disappointingly. I think it would be acceptable, though, given that the display is arguably a little too bright without something in front of it.

This right one looks very nice. Contrast is great. I would decrease it bit more on the LCD so those squares wan`t be visible that much. Is that filter comes as a foil roll or what?

I'm not sure, to be honest. I should be able to find out though. I'm probably going to steal some from work if they have the right colour- they have it in Big rolls.

Cool, thank you Mike!

I'm not at home at the moment, but I can look into it when I get back to work on Monday. There probaby are standard colours for gels. They tend to be sold in largish quantities for use with video/film lights, so it might be possible to get as much as you need by writing a carefully-worded email to a local supplier, requesting a free sample. I've managed to get hold of several different enclosures this way (though none turned out to be as cool as the PT-10).
