Tiffen 105C Coarse Thread #25 Red Camera Filter

Tiffen 105C Coarse Thread #25 Red Camera Filter | 105CR25

The black-and-white film photographer’s bag has a few indispensable tools: a light meter, a cable release, and a Tiffen #25 red filter. Out in the field, that red glass transforms a sky from pale haze to deep drama. Clouds pop. Foliage darkens. Skin tones shift. It’s a classic effect, and this particular filter delivers it with a rugged edge ? the 105C coarse thread configuration is purpose-built for lenses with aggressive threading.

• The #25 red glass is made for black-and-white work, cutting through blue and green wavelengths to create that high-contrast look with a darkened sky and brighter clouds.
• This Tiffen filter uses the Coarse thread pitch, meaning you can mount it securely on lenses that use a wider, more pronounced thread spacing ? not the standard 0.5mm pitch you’ll find on most modern glass.
• The solid metal ring holds the glass precisely and rotates on and off with a satisfying feel, without binding or wobbling during critical handheld shooting.
• Exposure compensation is straightforward: you’ll typically open up about 3 stops to account for the light blocked by the red glass, which is easy to dial in with any handheld meter or modern camera’s manual mode.
