Description:

The #16 Orange Filter from Tiffen is a filter designed to build contrast in black and white photography. The effect of the contrast will be greater than the #15 yellow when shooting B&W landscape, marine, or aerial photos. Therefore, making skies more dramatic and darker. The filter has a filter factor of 3, so you must increase by 1 2/3 of a stop of your exposure to compensate.

• Strong contrast in B&W images
• Ideal for landscape, marine, or aerial photography
• Renders sky more dramatic and darker
• Made in the U.S.A.

Tiffen filters are manufactured by using ColorCore technology, rather than dyeing or colouring the glass. This process laminates the filter material between two pieces of optical glass and grinds down and polishes the glass.

Important: DO not rely on computer screen images of colour when purchasing filters designed for Black and White photography, buy using the number designation. These are industry standard colours as designated by their colour and number. Refer to the Kodak Photographic Filters Handbook for transmission curves.
