B+W 022 Yellow filter, bright 495, MRC/Basic 60mm

B+W Black and White Filter

As the name suggests, B+W black and white filters are primarily used in black and white photography.

Yellow filters, for example, can enhance the brilliance of landscape shots and better differentiate plant greens. Yellow and orange filters transform fluffy clouds into dramatic cloudscapes, while red filters can intensify them to stormy levels or create moonlight effects during the day.

Key Features

• Optimization of gray tones for expressive images
• Available as yellow, orange, and red filters
• Suitable for both analog and digital cameras
• Made in Germany

Tip

With digital cameras that have a black and white mode, contrast enhancements can be achieved directly during shooting.

BASIC Yellow 495 (022)

The B+W 022 Yellow Filter 495 is considered a basic filter for every black and white photographer. The cloudy sky appears very natural but not overly dramatic. Distant views in slight haze become clearer—an ideal filter especially for landscape and plant photography.

Coating: MRC.
