Hoya Sepia B 49mm

overview

The SEPIA A and B are special effect filters designed to produce a nostalgic or antique look to images. Sepia tones are spread across the entire image. The result is as if the image was taken many years ago in Black & White, having then discolored with age. To achieve the maximum effect from these filters, a digital camera’s white balance should be set to “Daylight” or a preset custom white balance. The Sepia B filter has a stronger effect than the Sepia A.

The Sepia B filter is useful when:

• You want the resulting image to look as if it was an old black and white image that became discolored with age.
• You want the resulting image to have an “antique” look.
• The Sepia A filter doesn’t provide enough discoloration.
