72mm Yellow-Green Filter for Black-and-White
This 72mm yellow-green multi-coated glass filter is designed for black-and-white photographers who want natural skin tones and balanced outdoor scenics. It darkens red hues while absorbing green and green-blue tones so lips and skin render authentically in monochrome. The lighter green tint suits scenic work where softer lighting and added detail are priorities. Multi-coating reduces flare for cleaner contrast.
Check Lens Thread and Filter Factor Before Buying
Verify that your lens accepts a 72mm front thread; the filter will not fit other diameters without a step ring. Because the filter absorbs specific wavelengths, exposure compensation is required — confirm your camera can meter through the filter or that you can apply the manufacturer’s filter factor manually. Ensure you are shooting black-and-white film or a monochrome digital workflow; colour imaging will record a strong colour cast.
Adds Contrast Control Without Extra Glass
The filter threads directly onto the lens, adding no measurable length and leaving the hood mount free if the hood also uses 72mm threads. It replaces the need for heavy post-processing contrast adjustments by handling tonal separation optically at capture. Multi-coating keeps reflections low so you can keep the filter on when moving between indoor tungsten and outdoor foliage scenes. No power, firmware or adapter is required.
