Tiffen 4x5.65" Smoque 2 Filter product description
Professional Smoke Effects Without the Mess
The Tiffen 4x5.65" Smoque 2 Filter is a specialized diffusion tool designed to simulate the appearance of smoke or haze within a scene. By mimicking the way light scatters through particulate matter, this filter allows cinematographers to create atmospheric depth without the logistical challenges of theatrical smoke generators like cookies, pellets, or aerosols.
This filter is particularly effective for maintaining visual consistency. While physical smoke is often subject to wind or air conditioning, the Smoque 2 provides a stable, repeatable effect. It also creates a more comfortable environment for cast and crew by reducing or eliminating the release of solid particles into the air, making it an ideal choice for sensitive locations or long shooting days.
Built to professional standards, the filter is manufactured using Tiffen's proprietary ColorCore technology. This process involves laminating the filter substrate between two pieces of optical glass and grinding it to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, ensuring exceptional clarity and color fidelity. It is compatible with standard matte boxes and filter holders that accommodate 4mm-thick filters.
