Video Not Working? Fix It Now

Today's question from Gary J. is, "In the old days of film, we would take indoor social club flash pictures and would correct the pictures by using colored gels. The idea was to deliver a perfect exposure with the flash and use the gels to correct for the color of the background. It seems so long ago that I can't remember if the gel was on the flash, the lens, or both! Thanks in advance, Gary.” Go to http://www.AskDavidBergman.com to submit your own photo question, see David's gear list, and view the episode archive.
