The Tiffen 72mm Black and White Filter Kit should be considered a staple for anyone addicted to traditional black and white negative shooting. Then again, even those preferring the digital side of photography can still make excellent use of this basic and useful trio of filters.
Contrast is always critical in black and white photography - and these filters will surely help you get better control of your tonality.
Red Filter
Ideal for strong contrast improvement since it absorbs green and blue completely and enhances red. In addition to contrast control, red filters enhance skin tones, tonal corrections and are effective for more dramatic landscapes.
Yellow
Commonly used for a noticeable increase in contrast with black and white films.
Green
Commonly used for a noticeable increase in contrast with black and white films.
