The #21 Orange Filter from Tiffen is a filter designed to build contrast in black and white photography and creates separation between the tones. The filter absorbs blue and blue-green colors, rendering blues darker such as for skies in landscape or aerial photos and water in marine shots.



Tiffen filters are not dyed, but are manufactured by using ColorCore technology. This process laminates the filter material between two pieces of optical glass and grinds down and polishes the glass. The glass is then mounted to the metal ring, which after that can be screwed onto the lens for the desired effect.


  • Strong contrast in B&W images
  • Ideal for landscape, marine, or aerial photography
  • Absorbs blue and blue-green colors
  • Renders blues darker

Emily D. ★★★★★

Finally got this orange filter to cut through haze on landscapes, and the contrast in my B&W shots is noticeably richer now. It slides onto my 77mm lens smoothly and the build feels solid enough for regular use.

Steven ★★★★★

Sky looks dramatic now instead of washed out—blue sky goes properly dark while clouds stay bright. Screws into my lens smoothly and doesn’t shift the exposure. Exactly the kind of contrast I was hoping for on my first roll.

Sophia ★★★★★

Switching to black and white film with this orange filter made my landscape shots pop—the clouds really separate from the sky now. It screws on smoothly and the glass feels sturdy, exactly what I needed for better contrast outdoors.
