Well I've got three shades of filters in 39mm for three of my Leica lenses kind of my default filter size. I've got a B+W 090 light red Wratten 25 And a B+W 091 red Wratten 29 But my trump card which I've never put to use is a B+W 092 which looks almost black. I think it took me a month to get it. "This dark red filer is for black and white infrared films and filters at light below approximately 650nm. It allows pictures of a pure red image while making good use of the relatively low sensitivity of infrared films. Filter factor is approx. 20-40." There's one even redder than this. But I'd have to kill you to tell you about it. Mark Rabiner Photography Portland Oregon http://rabinergroup.com/
