NEW

Blue Streak And Arri Lens Filters

The Tiffen Company has added a new special effects filter to its line of optical filters. The Blue Streak filter is designed to render a blue light ray from a point light source, creating the classic look of an Anamorphic lens. Rotation of the filter allows the user to adjust the angle and direction of the of the light ray streak to suit the desired composition or effect.

Tiffen Blue Streak filters come in a choice of 2mm or 3mm streak spacing. They are each available in standard sizes (4×4, 6.6×6.6, 4×5.65, 138mm) as well as rounds to fit the IOP rear filter system on the Angénieux Optimo Prime Series. Special sizes are available upon request.

Also new, filmmakers who use ARRI Signature lenses can add their favourite Tiffen filters to the ARRI Magnetic Rear Filter Holder on each lens. Installation does not require any special tech or tools. Tiffen’s integral ring of 12, high- power magnets on each filter ring align perfectly with those on each Signature lens, enabling more creative options when it comes to strengths and varieties of filtration. It also means less weight than having matte boxes and filter holders in front of the lens.

Cine professionals can choose from the large range of Tiffen diffusion filter types—including Black Fog, Night Fog, Black Pro-Mist, Antique Black Pearlescent, Antique Pearlescent, Antique Satin, Smoque, the array of Glimmerglass and many more. As with front-of-the-lens filters, Tiffen rear filters come in a choice of grades from 1/8 to 2.
