Tiffen 67mm 81B Warming Glass Filter

From the serene high-altitude landscapes to the vibrant hues of a seaside scene, the Tiffen 67mm 81B Warming Glass Filter is expertly crafted to balance color temperature and reduce the excess blue tones that can affect daylight film. This filter is particularly effective for photographers aiming to capture the sky or sea with a natural warmth or for those looking to correct the 'cool' effect of flash exposures.

The 81B filter is slightly warmer than the 81A, offering a subtle yet impactful color enhancement that enriches skin tones, making it a staple for portrait photographers. With a filter factor of 1.4, it requires an additional 1/2 f-stop of light, allowing for precise control over exposure adjustments.

Understanding that all light sources, whether natural or artificial, influence color rendition on film, Tiffen has designed this high-quality, durable filter to provide the necessary correction. It 'warms' or 'cools' the image to counteract the myriad of lighting variations you may encounter during a shoot.

For cameras with internal metering systems, adjustments for the filter factor are made automatically, ensuring ease of use and consistent results. For those using external or handheld meters, it's important to account for the light absorption measured by the filter factor.

The Tiffen 67mm 81B Warming Glass Filter is part of the comprehensive 81 series, which includes a range of strengths to suit various photographic needs. The 81A offers a milder warming effect, while the 81C provides twice the warming effect of the 81B, and the 81EF delivers an extremely strong warming effect. For photographers seeking to cool their images, the 82 series serves as the opposite of the 81 series. The 80 series is ideal for using daylight film in tungsten lighting, and the 85 series is perfect for using tungsten film in daylight conditions. Additionally, the FL-D filter corrects daylight film in fluorescent lighting, and the FL-W is designed for using tungsten film with fluorescent lighting.

Versatile and affordable, the Tiffen 67mm 81B Warming Glass Filter is an essential tool for photographers who demand effective color correction and desire to create images with a professional, refined touch.
