Tiffen #12 Yellow Filter (55mm)
Category: Filters Soft Effects & Contrast Filters
The Tiffen 55mm #12 Yellow Filter is a classic photographic filter designed to enhance black and white photography by improving contrast and tonal separation. By absorbing blue light, this filter darkens skies, reduces haze, and brings out dramatic cloud definition, making it a versatile tool for landscape and aerial photography.
In addition to enhancing tonal range, the #12 Yellow Filter is recommended for use with Kodak Aero Ektachrome Infrared Film, making it an excellent choice for specialized applications. It also improves astrophotography by cutting excessive blue for clearer, more detailed results. With a filter factor of 2, exposure must be increased by one full stop when using this filter.
Manufactured with Tiffen’s renowned ColorCore® technology, the filter material is laminated between two precision-ground pieces of optical glass and mounted into a durable metal ring, ensuring professional consistency and long-lasting reliability.
