B+W 499 F-Day
This light-violet filter eliminates the unpleasant blue-green color tint produced by daylight films illuminated by fluorescent tubes. Filter factor is approx. 2.


B+W 415 [Wratten 2B] [Schott GG 400]
This colorless ultraviolet absorbing filter is used to eliminate haze from ultraviolet rays and possible fluorescence from the lens cement. Used for high-altitude photography. Filter factor is approx. 1.


B+W 420 [Wratten 2E] [Schott GG 420]
Due to the slight yellow coloring of this filter, it is designed for aerial photography with black and white film. Filter factor is approx. 1.2.


B+W 470 [Schott BG 18]
This filter is used to differentiate reproductions of green tones in reproduction photography. It may also be used to create the effect of haze. Filter factor is approx. 2.


B+W 486

This UV/IR cut interference filter completely blocks the often unwanted UV and IR radiation. It is especially recommended for CCD applications where digital image sensors have not been fitted with an IR protection filter. Further applications: video films, digital and conventional b/w or color photography as well as technical applications.


B+W 403 [Schott UG 1]

Although this dark-violet filter transmits a small amount of visible light, it completely blocks wavelengths longer than 410nm. Its application is in UV-reflection photography and for the front of UV emitting illumination in UV-fluorescent photography. Depending on the film, the filter factor is between 8 and 20.


B+W 489 [Schott KG 3]

This filter is frequently described as a heat absorbing filter because it lets the visible spectral range pass while the infrared rays from 780nm are strongly blocked. It is often used to protect IR-sensitive CCD sensors or in illumination systems.
