Tiffen 55mm Glimmerglass 5 Filter

Professional Diffusion for Cinematic Results

The Tiffen 55mm Glimmerglass 5 Filter is a specialized diffusion tool that produces a soft, clean halation around practical and specular light sources. While many filters sacrifice clarity for atmosphere, Glimmerglass maintains an apparent sharpness across the entire frame. This density 5 filter provides a distinct effect, lowering contrast and moderately muting bright colors to create a sophisticated, filmic aesthetic that remains non-destructive to the original image.

Flattering Portraits and Beauty Shots

In close-up photography, the Glimmerglass 5 excels by softening fine details like wrinkles and blemishes while keeping the core image sharp. A unique benefit of this series is the physical sparkle of the filter when viewed by the subject. This sparkle provides a psychological boost to talent during beauty shoots, giving them confidence in their appearance while you concentrate on the technical aspects of the composition.

Precision Engineering

Constructed using Tiffen's ColorCore technology, this filter is made by laminating the effect material between two pieces of optical glass. This ensures that the diffusion effect remains consistent and protected from the elements. The result is a durable, high-performance optical tool that delivers predictable results in demanding professional environments.
