The Tiffen Company
The Tiffen Company, a Long Island based leading manufacturer of award winning photographic accessories, announced its new Image Maker Professional Filter Kit Series. Tiffen Image Maker Professional Filter Kit Series was designed using Tiffen’s proprietary award-winning ColorCore™ Technology that controls the color and density for optimum consistency. “Image Maker Filter Series was created for the emerging and professional videographers. Tiffen also introduced a new innovative filter to combat infrared light with the Tiffen T1 IR Filter. CCD and CMOS sensors are made from Silicon, which is inherently sensitive to infrared energy; therefore, digital camera manufacturers have worked diligently in making sensors that see only the visible spectrum. The Tiffen T1 IR filter captures subtle hues of red, while maintaining crisp blacks and assisting the camera in capturing the wide color gamut with minimal light loss – ½ stop. Made with Water White glass the filter is available in sizes 72mm and 77mm (thin profile wide angle ring), 82mm, 4x4, 4 x 5.65 and 6.6 x 6.6. Also from Tiffen, two new diffusion filters, the Soft/FX Black Pro-Mist and Black Glimmer Digital Diffusion/FX. Soft/FX is a combination of the existing Soft/FX filter and Black Pro-Mist filter. The Soft/FX ½ is maintained throughout with a range of Black Pro-Mist densities, which produces an ethereal mood to images. The filter provides a wide range of diffusion, while toning down excessive sharpness and creating a soft pastel effect. In addition, this filter combination reveals more shadow detail and produces a dreamy glow to subjects with enhanced but controlled halation. The Tiffen Black Glimmer Digital Diffusion/FX is a unique filter that cannot be reproduced by any combination of diffusion filters. Using the same advanced filter technology as the Digital Diffusion/FX, Tiffen has produced a filter ideal for High-definition cameras, producing enhanced beauty, while maintaining the richness of colors and blacks. This diffusion filter maintains sharpness and softens detail, brightens all skintones and adds a mild glow and silky transition to highlights.
