Tiffen 55mm Hyper Star Filter product description

Elevate Your Night and Landscape Photography

The Tiffen 55mm Hyper Star Filter is a specialized creative tool designed to transform ordinary point light sources into spectacular visual elements. By utilizing a series of fine, etched lines on the filter surface, it generates a distinct 14-point starburst effect that adds a professional, artistic touch to your images.

Precision Engineering and Optical Quality

This filter is crafted from premium optical glass, ensuring that your images maintain high clarity and accurate color reproduction. The light source itself is rendered in an elliptical shape, with 14 diffraction spikes arranged in two groups of seven. These spikes extend from the furthest points of the ellipse, creating a symmetrical and balanced aesthetic.

Versatile Control and Application

To provide complete creative control, the filter features a rotating aluminum-alloy ring. This allows photographers to adjust the angle and direction of the starburst spikes to perfectly suit the composition. It is most effective when the light source has a significant degree of contrast from the rest of the scene.

  • Ideal for cityscapes, holiday lights, and sun-drenched landscapes.
  • Best used with high-contrast point light sources.
  • Compatible with all 55mm lens threads.
