Tiffen 67mm 25 Filter (Red)

The company was originally founded by Sol Tiffen in 1938 and later joined by two of his brothers Leo and Nat. At the time, the company sold an array of camera accessories for amateur and professional photographers such as filters, adapter rings and lens accessories. However, the optical filters were made by other companies and were inconsistent in color and quality. This caught Nat’s attention, and after years of research and development, Tiffen would bring their first filters. This was not just another filter, but a major breakthrough for filter technology.

In 1951, Tiffen’s new proprietary, ColorCore technology was used to manufacture Tiffen glass filters. Over the years the company was involved in manufacturing a wide array of filter accessories with Sol managing the consumer photography business, Leo overseeing the company’s entrance into the audio-visual market and Nat managing manufacturing and the motion picture and television business.
