Tiffen 62mm Yellow 8 Filter video accessory

SKU CH-3WTK-C04QV

A 62mm Yellow 8 filter improves contrast and tonal correction for natural black-and-white imaging

  • Most natural tonal correction for black-and-white imaging
  • 62mm diameter fits compatible lens threads
  • Medium yellow filter darkens blue skies for natural cloud contrast
  • Improves contrast in landscape and marine scenes
  • Creative tool for colour imaging beyond black-and-white use

What it is

The Tiffen 62mm Yellow 8 Filter is a screw-on glass accessory sized for 62 mm lens threads. It is designed primarily for black-and-white imaging where it improves contrast and delivers the most natural tonal correction across the scene.

Who it suits

Photographers and videographers shooting monochrome who want realistic cloud definition against blue skies will benefit. It also serves as a creative tonal tool for colour work. Users needing stronger haze penetration or more dramatic landscape contrast should consider the Yellow 12 or Yellow 15 variants instead.

Capacity and headroom

The medium yellow density comfortably handles typical daylight scenes, rendering clouds naturally without excessive darkening. In situations with heavy atmospheric haze or when a more pronounced infrared effect is required, the filter reaches its limit and a stronger grade becomes necessary.

Questions about this item

What lens thread size must my camera lens have for this 62mm filter to attach?

Your lens needs a 62mm front thread; the filter screws directly onto that diameter.

Can I stack this Yellow 8 filter with a Yellow 12 or Yellow 15 on the same lens?

Yes, both Yellow 12 and Yellow 15 share the same 62mm thread, so they can be stacked, though each added layer increases vignetting risk.

How do I know the Yellow 8 is giving the correct tonal contrast outdoors?

Blue skies render darker while clouds stay bright, delivering the natural cloud-to-sky contrast the filter is designed for.
