Revar Cine 138mm Kaleidoscope-9

Professional 138mm Kaleidoscope Filter

The Revar Cine 138mm Kaleidoscope-9 is a specialized optical tool designed to transform standard cinematography into surreal, multi-layered imagery. Featuring a unique 9-surface geometry, this filter utilizes a 50mm flat center portion to maintain core image clarity while reflecting the periphery onto eight surrounding surfaces. The result is a stunning array of duplicate images perfect for dream sequences, music videos, and abstract storytelling.

Premium Schott BK7 Glass

Unlike standard filters, Revar Cine utilizes high-quality Schott BK7 glass. This material features a refractive index similar to high-end lens elements, ensuring that your footage maintains professional performance levels. The glass is manufactured to the highest tolerances, exceeding the optical quality of typical diopters.

Built for the Production Environment

The filter is housed in a high-quality anodized aluminum ring treated with scratch-resistant coatings. This ensures the 138mm Kaleidoscope-9 can withstand the rigors of professional film sets while protecting the precision optics within.

Mounting and Compatibility

Due to its substantial build, weighing approximately 1.5 lbs (700 grams), proper support is essential. We recommend the following setups:

• Vocas 5-Axis Diopter Holder: Provides maximum creative control and structural support for this large filter.
• Atlas 138-114mm Holder: A streamlined solution that clamps directly onto 114mm front lenses.
• Step-Down Compatibility: Use Bright Tangerine inserts with the Atlas holder to adapt to 110mm or 95mm front diameters.

The 138mm size is an industry standard for professional matte boxes and diopter trays, offering maximum compatibility with wide-angle lenses without the risk of vignetting.
