B+W 67mm Redhancer Single Coated Filter

The B+W Redhancer is a filter with very special transmission properties to amplify the red color portions of orange, red or brown motifs and is frequently used in nature shots or landscape photography. It is particularly effective in connection with a polarization filter to eliminate the bluish gray haze and to increase color saturation.

The B+W Redhancer, made from didymium glass, is a filter with very special transmission characteristics. Designed to strengthen the reddish components of orange, near red or brown subjects, it is very popular for use in nature and landscape photography. It is particularly effective in conjunction with a polarizing filter, controlling a potentially bluish-gray veil and for increasing color saturation, e.g. to capture fabulously vivid scenery during the colorful autumn season. The use of color reversal film is recommended, because the automatic correction applied by printers to color negatives can erroneously interpret the desired effect as a color cast and reduce it by filtering it out.
