The Tiffen Yellow 8 Glass Filter is commonly used for a noticeable increase in contrast with black and white films. It is especially useful for clear contrast between blue sky with clouds and foreground. It is also suitable for landscapes and nature scenes. If your black and white photos lack that certain "snap" and just need a pinch of contrast, a Yellow 8 should give them enough of a boost to bring them to an acceptable stage.

Tiffen, a leader in the filter industry, proudly makes its filters in the USA and backs up its products with a solid 10-year warranty.

Q: 1. If I buy a step up ring for this lens (37mm to 46mm), will I still be able to use the lens hood? Or would a step up ring block the thread from being able to mount on the hood?

A: Once you put on the 37 to 46mm step up ring, the included lens hood will not fit over it. If you put the hood on first, you might be able to get the step up ring on after it, but it would be very fiddly and inconvenient.

Q: 2. Campared to the Sony Sony FE 70-200mm f4.0 are the extra stops worth the $1,100 price for model and landscape photography?

A: It depends if you like to shoot wide open or not. Personally, I do and it was worth the extra investment when I was with Canon and its worth it now with Sony. I had the 4.0 version with Canon and ended up selling it and buying the 2.8 afterward. It makes a huge difference when shooting individual portraits. love this lens!

Q: 9. I’m thinking of purchasing this, how would I mount an M50 or M6 MKII to it?

A: All you need to add is a T-mount adapter and camera-specific T-ring. The T-Ring couples your 35mm SLR camera body to the T-Adapter, radial guider, or tele-extender. This accessory is mandatory if you want to do photography through the telescope. Each camera make has its own unique mount and therefore, its own T-Ring. Celestron has 8 different models for 35mm cameras. you may also need an Canon EF-M Lens Adapter Kit for Canon EF / EF-S Lenses for your camera body.
