I'm not familiar with all of the filters, but the #29 is a deep red filter.
This filter will only pass red and infrared, resulting in only two dyes
being affected.

This is why the proper filter is yellow (though some have reported good
results with orange).  This filter will allow for all three layers to be
affected through exposure.
