Overview

The Tiffen 6711G1 is a 67mm #11 (light green) photographic filter built from optical glass and designed specifically for black-and-white imaging. Its core function is tonal manipulation: greens in the scene are rendered lighter while reds are darkened, producing a more nuanced range of grays in the final image. For landscape work, it darkens skies relative to clouds, adding definition and drama. In portraiture, it gently lightens skin tones, yielding a smoother and more flattering monochrome rendering.

With a filter factor of 4, the Tiffen #11 Green requires a 2-stop exposure increase — something easily handled by modern cameras with TTL metering. It sits between the milder yellow filters and the more aggressive orange and red filters in terms of contrast effect, making it a versatile middle-ground choice for photographers who want noticeable tonal control without the extreme darkening that stronger filters produce. The 67mm thread size fits directly onto matching lenses, and step-up rings can extend its compatibility to smaller diameters.
