Karl -
Lee Lighting #172 'Lagoon Blue' is an exact match for the 4 Line and I
believe for the 7 Line as well. It has just the hint of green to look
'authentic'! :-) It looks 'bluer' on the TR-7 because it's out front
instead of behind the diffuser. The sample on your web-page is not an
accurate color, at least on my monitor.
This is partially why it looks greenish with age, as well as yellowing
of the reflector and the 'white' diffuser sheet. Neither of these is
present in the TR-7 so it tends to have that 'Drake blue' for a long
time as long as the dial is not in direct sunlight.

Good morning,
I am going to swap outaged blue filter foils at my TR7 and RV7 as well. I
found that foils from LEE could be a good solution. I am uncertain if just
blue #079, dark blue #119 or medium blue #132 - or any other - would fit best.
See the following link for details:

Has someone experienced what exact colour should be used?
