Tiffen 138mm 3-Pack #9 Yellow Camera Filter

Tiffen 138mm 3-Pack #9 Yellow Camera Filter | 1389Y3

Three 138mm filters, one yellow workhorse. That’s this pack: Tiffen #9 Yellow, at a serious size for serious gear.

This 3-pack equips you with a classic contrast filter for black-and-white film or monochrome digital shooting. The #9 yellow darkens blue skies, cuts through atmospheric haze a bit, and makes clouds pop against the sky. It also helps separate tones in foliage and skin ? subtle but tangible shifts that give your monochrome work more depth.

• Three filters, standard #9 yellow: Swap out, stack after cleaning a single filter, or keep spares across different lenses built for 138mm thread.
• Solid for landscapes and portraits: Darkens sky blues (think deeper cloud standoff) while keeping overall exposure gain modest ? roughly one stop for incident light correction.
• Ready for big front elements: 138mm diameter fits cinema primes and super-telephoto lenses that take large filter rings.
• Tiffen construction: Optical glass with a consistent ColorCore lamination layer, meaning batch-to-batch accuracy across all three units.

This 3-pack is for black-and-white shooters who want repeatable sky-darkening without guesswork, or anyone running a large-diameter cinema lens and needing a solid set of yellows. If you’re working a 138mm thread and shoot monochrome outdoors, this will save you time rigging and re-rigging.
