Tiffen 55mm Pearlescent 2 Filter

Elevate Your Cinematography with the Tiffen Pearlescent 2 Filter

The Tiffen 55mm Pearlescent 2 Filter is an essential tool for modern cinematographers and photographers looking to overcome the clinical sharpness of high-resolution digital sensors. By intentionally softening contrast and reducing fine detail, this filter produces a more flattering, organic image that mimics the aesthetic of traditional film.

Key Visual Effects

This filter excels in portraiture and narrative filmmaking. It works by diffusing highlights to create a signature pearlescent halo, adding a dreamlike quality to your footage. Simultaneously, it smooths skin tones by reducing the visibility of blemishes and fine lines without sacrificing the overall integrity of the shot.

Advanced ColorCore Manufacturing

Like all professional Tiffen filters, the Pearlescent 2 is manufactured using ColorCore technology. This proprietary process involves laminating the filter substrate between two pieces of high-quality optical glass. Each filter is then ground flat to an incredible tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, ensuring exceptional parallelism and optical performance across the entire frame.
