Features of the Yellow Filter 022 in black and white photography:
- By using the yellow filter in landscape photography, the sky is subtly darkened, allowing the color contrast with the terrain to stand out. The overall image of the sky becomes more interesting, as the clouds become more prominent, creating an impressive panorama.
- Similar to the orange filter, the yellow filter is also popular in portrait photography. It produces a warm, healthy skin tone and gives the image a natural radiance.
- In plant photography, the yellow filter helps to differentiate various shades of green, resulting in stunning results.
B+W | BASIC Filter mount
The Basic line from B+W impresses with its innovative filters, featuring a newly designed rotating ring with optimized grip. The filter mount is made of robust brass and is equipped with a special functional coating that ensures smooth screwing on and off. Each individual filter is manufactured in Germany to the highest standards with minimal tolerances, guaranteeing utmost quality and reliability. Thanks to the brass material, the filter mount is extremely stable and durable. The special functional coating provides optimal sliding properties, making it easy to attach and detach filters, snap-on lens caps, or lens hoods without compromising the low profile design of the mount.
The filter glass within the brass mount is free from any tension, resulting in optimal flatness and excellent image performance. Another advantage of the BASIC mount is the rear-mounted filter glass secured by a screw ring, preventing the loosening of the screw ring when removing additional filters or lens hoods that have been tightly screwed on.
B+W | MRC coating
An essential feature of a premium filter is its coating. The quality of an image begins before the lens, where the filter is placed. A filter should never compromise the performance of the lens. This is where the MRC (Multi Resistant Coating) comes into play. With a multi-coating layer on both sides (7 + 1 layers), maximum anti-reflection is achieved, eliminating distracting stray light. This allows for more stunning colors and increased contrast. With a residual reflection of only 0.5%, MRC reliably prevents ghosting or double images that can be caused by reflection from the image sensor. Furthermore, MRC protects the filter with increased surface hardness, guarding against scratches and preserving high optical quality. It is also resistant to dirt and water, making cleaning a breeze.
The B+W Yellow Filter 495 | 022 | MRC BASIC comes in a high-quality genuine leather case. The leather case not only protects against scratches and dirt but also serves as storage and transportation. It's a stylish companion for everyday use. For quick and targeted access to the right filter, the leather case is equipped with a label window on the back.
