blue light filter recommendation for a Nikon D80

[mfinn]

I am not happy at all with my Samsung S20 Ultra pictures even with a orphek lens kit.
So this morning I charged up the battery for my Nikon D80 that I bought 10-12 years ago.
I used to be able to get ok pictures with it just using auto mode. But one of the reasons I gave it up was the led blue light that just messes everything up.
So can anyone tell me which filter ( yellow or orange ) and adapter I need to get for this camera?
I'm just using the lens that came with it, ED 18-55mm

Do you have the pro camera option on the S20?
I have the 21 and the standard camera has a rubbish AWB but under the Pro Camera option you have a slider to do custom WB. This works pretty well

Heres that pro option with my s21 ultra vs the orphek lens kit....its good but the lens is better

Btw this orphek lens kit fits 52mm DSLR camera....its what i use for the galaxy s21 ultra.

Might have to add a filter to my 6D setup

I'm just unhappy with the quality of pictures this camera takes. It's not really anything to do with WB. The pictures just are not clear and focused.
My previous phone cameras seemed to do a ok job, I guess. But not anything like I used to be able to take with this D80 and before that ( my favorite Nikon 8700 and the software it had)

I looked in the menu and I did find the Pro feature and took a couple pictures and you are right, it does make a difference.
I still would like to give the D80 a try.

80D V a phone camera?

The Nikon D80 is a digital single-lens reflex camera

You can try bumping up the WB on the D80 and also incorporate a Tiffen filter (85B). Watch the prices on the Tiffen...you should be able to get one for <= $30 or so. I think I got mine at Adorama. Good luck!

Yep. Just saying a phone camera does not compare to a phone camera.
I used a Canon 6D and 100mm MACRO or my S21
