Tiffen 138mm #25 Red Photography Filter

Tiffen 138mm #25 Red Photography Filter | 138R25

The frustration is real. You twist a standard circular polarizer onto a large-diameter lens ? and it vignettes. Corners go dark. Your carefully composed image is ruined. The Tiffen 138mm #25 Red Photography Filter solves that problem.

• Full-frame coverage, no shadows. At 138mm, this red filter fits into many large-diameter filter holders or threads directly onto big telephoto lenses and cine glass. You won’t see edge darkening even at wide apertures.
• Dramatic black-and-white contrast. The #25 red density darkens the sky and foliage while making skin tones and clouds pop. It’s the classic look for fine-art landscapes and portraits shot on monochrome film or digital.
• Optical glass, precision mounted. Tiffen’s ColorCore glass is ground flat to within a fraction of a wavelength of light. Each #25 red filter is individually inspected ? so no weird color shifts or hot spots.
• Easy handling on large lenses. The 138mm ring lacks a set screw but tightens smoothly; just spin it on until it’s snug. No tools. No swearing.
• Rugged for field use. The aluminum ring resists corrosion. The glass takes standard cleaning fluids without hazing. It’ll survive being tossed in your kit bag for years.

Whether you’re shooting infrared-film conversions, trying to tame ugly digital highlights, or going for that 1950s photo-journalism feeling, the 138mm #25 red is a tool you reach for, not one you accidentally leave at home.
