Pros & Cons
👍 Pros
- Effectively warms skin tones for more flattering portrait results straight out of camera
- Reduces blue color casts from electronic flash, open shade, and overcast conditions
- Standard 67mm thread fits a wide range of lenses across multiple camera brands
- Produces warmer results than a Sky 1-A filter, providing a more visible correction
- Negligible light loss means no significant exposure compensation is needed
👎 Cons
- Fixed warming strength cannot be dialed back — the effect is always fully applied
- Only available in 67mm, so lenses with other filter diameters require a different size or step-up ring
- Warming effect may be excessive for scenes that already have warm ambient light
- The same color correction can be replicated in post-processing with white balance adjustments
- Adds another glass element in front of the lens, which may increase the chance of flare in backlit situations
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the 812 filter and a standard skylight filter?
The Tiffen 812 provides a noticeably warmer tone than a standard Sky 1-A filter. It adds more warmth to counteract blue casts from shade, overcast skies, or electronic flash, while a skylight filter offers only minimal warming.
Will this filter affect image sharpness?
Tiffen's 812 filter is made with optical glass designed to maintain sharpness. When kept clean, it should not introduce any noticeable loss of detail or resolution.
Can I use this filter for video as well as photography?
Yes. The warming effect works the same way on video footage, reducing blue color casts and enhancing skin tones in real time without requiring post-production color correction.
Does the 812 filter reduce the amount of light entering the lens?
The light reduction is negligible. The 812 is a color correction filter rather than a neutral density filter, so it does not meaningfully affect your exposure settings.
Is this filter compatible with any 67mm lens?
Yes. It threads onto any lens with a 67mm front filter diameter, regardless of brand or focal length.
