Originally posted by NecroticSoldier Hello everyone, can someone recommend me some coloured filters for black and white picture taking? I will be using a Pentax-A 50mm f2 and Pentax-M 135mm F3.5 (possibly a 28mm f2.8 in the future).
A bit of a noob question...yes, but I have no idea what would be a well known model/brand.
Yellow, orange, red and a Polarizer are all worth investing in. Also use a UV as a base filter. If you are using your K1000 film camera for B&W, then you can get a Linear (top) polarizer instead of a CPL and save a lot of money.
Brand wise any major filter manufacture is good; B+W, Hoya, Tiffen and also Pentax.
Multicoated filters are better, but will also cost more.
