If we shoot with 64T (Tungsten stock) for indoor under tungsten light we meed to set the internal filter (85) out. That is the rule.
Now what is the rule if we are shooting with E100D which is daylight stock?
Do we need to put an external filter? and what number?

With E100D the camera's internal filter has to be removed, always. For interiour shots (tungsten light) you might use the filter 80A - makes shot 2 stops slower.

Hi thanks guys for the info.
While I am looking for the 80A filter, can you tell me what will be the result if I am shooting under tungsten light without 80A filter (ps: internal filter 85 in the camera is removed).

Hi,
when you do have any digital camera, you can simply simulate the result of not using a filter under tungsten light by switching the white balance from "automatic" to "sun". Even though the camera will still try to compensate, you should notice that everything is too reddish or too orange or too warm ... (as long as the light is tungsten - some of the newer "Compact fluorescent lamps" or "LED lamps" emit a warmer light) ..when you don't have a digital camera, you might want to take a look at page 30 in Hoya's Catalog.
