86mm Yellow 495 Filter

The B+W 86mm Basic 022M MRC Filter in Yellow 495 is a screw-on camera filter built for professional photography. Its multi-coated glass cuts reflections and glare to preserve contrast and colour fidelity. The yellow tint reduces blue light, warming skies and foliage in landscape scenes. It is supplied new and fits any lens with an 86mm thread.

Ideal for monochrome and landscape work

Photographers shooting black-and-white film or digital files gain stronger tonal separation and clearer distant detail through haze. Colour shooters who want a subtle warming effect on skies and greenery will also benefit. Buyers needing a neutral density or polarising effect should look at a different filter type. The 86mm thread limits use to lenses with that exact diameter.

86mm thread diameter

The single specification that decides compatibility is the 86mm filter thread. Your lens must show an 86mm thread size — often marked Ø86 — for this filter to mount directly without step-up or step-down rings. No other dimension or feature in the data determines fit.

Questions about this item

What lens thread size does the 86mm Basic 022M MRC Yellow 495 filter require?

The filter mounts directly on any lens with an 86 mm front thread.

What physical clearance does the filter need when mounted on an 86mm lens?

Its slim Basic-series ring adds minimal depth so it clears most lens caps and hoods designed for 86 mm threads.

How do you install the 86mm Basic 022M MRC Yellow 495 filter without cross-threading the multi-coated glass?

Align the filter squarely on the 86 mm thread, turn gently clockwise until resistance is felt, then stop — forcing it damages the coating.
