Tiffen 62mm 16 Filter (Orange) video accessory

SKU CH-N8SJ-MH7ZV

An orange filter for black-and-white imaging with stronger contrast than a yellow 15 filter, fitting 62mm threads

  • More dramatic contrast than Yellow 15 filter
  • Orange 16 filter deepens blue tones in marine scenes
  • 62mm diameter fits compatible lens threads
  • Designed primarily for black-and-white imaging
  • Filter number progression increases dramatic effect intensity

Purpose and Audience

This Tiffen orange filter threads onto 62mm camera lenses and is intended for black-and-white photography. It produces deeper contrast than a yellow 15 filter, making skies and water appear darker in monochrome images.

Practical Limits

The filter absorbs blue and blue-green wavelengths, so colour work will shift noticeably toward orange tones. Effect strength is fixed at the 16 density; photographers needing lighter or stronger correction must choose a different filter number.

Build and Daily Use

The 62mm metal ring screws directly onto compatible lens threads without adapters. Its slim profile reduces vignetting on wide-angle glass, and the hardened coating resists fingerprints during frequent outdoor handling.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the Orange 16 filter or the Yellow 15 filter for black-and-white imaging?

The Orange 16 filter is designed primarily for black-and-white imaging and produces more dramatic effects than the Yellow 15 filter, making it the stronger choice for that purpose.

What does the 62mm diameter mean when I attach this filter to my lens?

The 62mm diameter matches lenses with a 62mm front thread, so the filter screws on directly without needing a step-up or step-down ring.

How does the filter number affect the result compared to the Orange 21 filter?

As the filter number advances, dramatic effects increase; the Orange 21 absorbs blue and blue-green tones more strongly, making blue tones darker in marine scenes than the Orange 16 does.
