The Tiffen 67mm 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

Comments about Tiffen 67mm Black and White #3 Filter Kit:
I like the idea of the pouch/filter assembly. This is the first time I have purchased filters in this method but I will be getting more in the future. The price reflectes a great value. Locally I don't think any one provides a kit the way your firm packages them.
