Tiffen 49mm Black and White Three Filter Kit
The Tiffen 49mm Black and White Three Filter Kit combines the essential Yellow #6, Green #13 and Red #25 contrast filters, with a four-compartment pouch, to provide a convenient solution for producing different degrees of contrast when working with black and white film.
Tiffen filters are manufactured using ColorCore technology, a process that laminates the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass, polishes it to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, and then mounts it in precision metal rings.
Green #13 (2) 49 mm filter
The Tiffen 49mm #13 (2) Green Filter is a basic contrast filter, primarily used with black and white film. This green filter subtly darkens skies and lightens foliage. It is commonly used in portraiture to achieve better separation between skin tones and outdoor backgrounds. Compared to the Yellow-Green #11 filter, the #13 helps to further lighten foliage and other green-coloured subjects.
This filter has a filter factor of 2x, requiring an increase of 1 stop for normal exposure. Tiffen filters are manufactured using ColorCore technology, a process that laminates the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass, polishes it to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, and then mounts it in precision metal rings.

Red #25 filter (49 mm)
The Tiffen 49mm #25 Red Filter is a filter designed to create contrast in black and white photography and create separation between tones. Using this filter creates dramatic skies or simulates a moonlight scene during daytime by slightly underexposing the image and also eliminates haze and fog. Infrared film is enhanced with extreme contrast, making skies even more dramatic and foliage white in landscape photographs. The filter has a filter factor of 8, so you need to increase your exposure by 3 stops to compensate.
Tiffen filters are not tinted, but are manufactured using ColorCore technology. This process laminates the filter material between two pieces of optical glass, then the glass is polished. The glass is then mounted in the metal ring, which can be screwed onto the lens to achieve the desired effect.
