B+W 1102667 95mm Orange MRC Black & White Filter

The B+W 95mm Basic Black & White Orange MRC 040M Glass Filter is a specialized tool for photographers who are serious about their monochrome work. Orange filters sit in the middle of the black and white filter spectrum — stronger than a yellow filter but less extreme than a red — making the 040M an excellent all-around choice for enhancing contrast. It darkens blue skies to bring out cloud formations, lightens warm skin tones for more flattering portraits, and adds tonal separation that gives black and white images a more three-dimensional quality.

Build quality reflects B+W's reputation as a premium filter manufacturer. The MRC (Multi-Resistant Coating) is applied to both sides of the glass, minimizing internal reflections that cause flare and ghosting while also providing practical resistance to smudges and moisture. The black knurled filter mount offers a tactile grip that makes threading the filter onto large 95mm lenses more manageable, an important consideration given the size and weight of lenses that use this thread diameter. The included QR code for authenticity verification adds peace of mind when purchasing through third-party retailers.
