B+W Orangefilter 040 MRC Basic 43mm (16x coated, Professional) - BW1102654

040 Orange Filter 550 This already very strong B+W 040 Orange Filter 550 significantly darkens violet and blue, strongly darkens green, and even slightly affects yellow-green. Landscape and architectural shots show an increased, almost "graphic" contrast, and cloudy skies can appear dramatic. Because the skin tones related to the filter color are significantly brightened against plant green, this filter is often used in outdoor nude photography to enhance the contrast between the lighter body and the darker landscape. Optimization of gray tones for expressive images Suitable for analog and digital cameras Made in Germany Tips for Black and White Photography Whether a shot is black and white or color primarily depends on artistic considerations. Often, black and white images lack clarity because the colors that stand out well in nature or in color images become hardly distinguishable as gray values despite accurate brightness representation. This can be countered with color filters. If the distance is to be well represented, a black and white image with an orange or red filter is the most expressive. Black and white shots with strong color filters yield very different images. The following list provides some guidelines: Yellow filter: Works without distortion, highlights clouds Orange filter: Similar effect to the red filter, but with less harsh contrast and fewer distortion effects. Red filter: Harsh representation, strong distortion, dramatic cloud formation, good representation of distance, even in haze.

• More contrast - Color filters increase contrast in black and white photography. They are mainly used in plant and landscape photography, but can also be useful in portrait photography.
• COATING: The 7+1 MRC coating ensures high transmission and maximum anti-reflective properties. The outer layer is dirt and water repellent.
• PROFESSIONAL LINE: The B+W BASIC filter holders offer high mechanical stability while maintaining a low profile. They can be used with the most common wide-angle lenses without the risk of vignetting.
