B+W 43mm Orange Camera Lens Contrast Filter with Multi Resistant Coating (040M)

Contrast Filter for Black and White Photography: The effect of this filter is quite powerful. It darkens violet and blue very strongly, green strongly, it even darkens yellow-green a bit. Landscape- and architectural photographs have an increased, virtually “graphic” contrast, clouds in the sky already look dramatic. Because skin tones are strongly lightened in relation to the green tones of plants, this is a favored filter for nude photography outdoors, because it raises the contrast between the lighter bodies and darker landscapes. Its filter factor is approximately 4. Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC).
