I use an 80C filter to render tungsten-lit photos somewhat
warmly on slide materials (more natural-looking than full tungsten-to-daylight correction), with an acceptable 2/3
stop loss in film speed, but for color negative materials
I have never found it necessary to use any correction (with
the consequent speed loss) with either tungsten or flourescent
lighting - the corrections can (and should) be made by the lab
when printing. (Holler if the lab doesn't print with the color
balance you want - they should reprint the off-color photos.)
Hope This Helps
