Tiffen 58mm Pearlescent 2 Filter

Cinematic Diffusion for Professional Imagery

The Tiffen 58mm Pearlescent 2 Filter is engineered to intentionally soften contrast and reduce the harsh sharpness often associated with modern high-resolution digital sensors. This effect is vital for cinematographers and photographers aiming to achieve a more organic, film-like aesthetic in their work.

Flattering Portrait Results

By reducing the appearance of skin blemishes and softening highlights, this filter produces a more flattering result for subjects. The Grade 2 intensity provides a noticeable diffusion that maintains image integrity while adding a sophisticated, dreamlike quality to the frame.

Atmospheric Highlight Halos

One of the signature characteristics of the Pearlescent series is the creation of a soft halo around highlights. This glow enhances the visual mood of a scene without sacrificing overall image clarity. The filter is manufactured using ColorCore technology, a process where the filter substrate is laminated between two pieces of optical glass and ground flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch.
