medium tube

Posted by dave z on Sunday, 13-Jan-2008
If anyone has an idea of a good medium tube please RSVP. Im now using FF tubes and I dont like lights. From what I gather on this site, the Charbons might be a medium tube. Any comments?

The lightest tubes have filter perforations. "Light" tubes with porous paper (instead of filter perforations) are noticeably less light. Tubes with standard paper and longer or higher high density filters (may or may not be labeled light) aren't much different. Everything between a standard 15-17mm filter and the perforated filter lights could probably be classified as mild/medium. The Charbons are pretty light (RYOT labels them ultra-light, but I don't think they're as light as perforated filter lights), a 20mm filter would probably be closer to medium. See also: [link]

I haven't tried a light tube yet but the Twister Air seems like it would be more of a medium tube than a light.
