Fairly niche filter for my camera. I really only use it for my q2m when I need red to really pop. It's well made and feels sturdy.

Stays on my Leica monochrom full time. Gives my black and white photos more dramatic contrast. It's fairly thick (standard filter thickness) so with this lens and a UV filter, I can't use the standard Leica hood and switch them out because there's no room.

Under the umbrella of Leica's high-quality photography equipment, the E49 49mm Glass Filter, Orange stands out as a versatile and innovative tool for both professional and amateur photographers. This durable filter is designed to dramatically enhance the contrast and clarity of your images, making it an essential addition to your photography kit.
The E49 49mm Glass Filter, Orange is particularly effective in darkening hues of violet and blue, while also significantly reducing the intensity of green tones. Even yellow-green shades are subtly darkened, resulting in a virtually "graphic" contrast that breathes life into landscape and architectural photographs. The dramatic effect this filter has on cloud formations in the sky adds a layer of depth and drama to your outdoor photography.
Moreover, this filter is a popular choice for outdoor nude photography. It uniquely lightens skin tones in relation to the green tones of plants, creating a striking contrast between lighter bodies and darker landscapes. This innovative feature of the E49 49mm Glass Filter, Orange helps to elevate your photography, capturing images with a level of detail and contrast that sets them apart.
Designed to reduce the amount of light entering the camera, this filter also alters the color of the resulting image, adding an orange tint that can add warmth and depth to your photographs. The multi-coated design of this filter further reduces lens flare and ghosting, ensuring improved image clarity and contrast.
In conclusion, the Leica E49 49mm Glass Filter, Orange is a high-quality, durable, and versatile tool that can enhance your photography experience, whether you're capturing architectural marvels, breathtaking landscapes, or the delicate beauty of the human form.
