Color correction tool

Hi,

Anyone know of a tool that would X light temperature and tell you what gel you need to convert it to Y temperature?

Example: 5000K => 6500K is a 50% CTO (not a real example, just making up numbers.)

thx

Yes I looked into this. The meter is over $3K last time I looked I think.

A color meter, like the Sekonic C-500, can do that and it doesn't cost over $3K. It's just over a grand so it still isn't exactly cheap. Kenko and Gossen make color meters, too.
