The Tiffen 72mm Smoque 1/8 Filter allows cinematographers and photographers to simulate the atmospheric presence of smoke or haze directly through the lens. By mimicking the diffusion and light-scattering properties of theatrical smoke, this filter eliminates the need for smoke machines, pellets, or aerosols on set. It is an essential tool for creators looking to add depth and mood to their imagery without the logistical hurdles of physical smoke generators.
Consistent Atmospheric Control
Achieving a uniform look with physical smoke is often challenging due to wind or ventilation. The Smoque 1/8 filter provides a consistent appearance across every frame, ensuring your scene maintains its visual identity without the unpredictability of drifting particles. This filter also helps maintain a more comfortable photo or film set by eliminating the release of solid airborne particles associated with traditional smoke effects.
Professional Optical Quality
Built with Tiffen's proprietary ColorCore technology, this filter is manufactured by laminating the substrate between two pieces of optical glass and grinding it to a precise tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. This ensures exceptional clarity and color fidelity, making it a reliable tool for high-end film and digital productions. The 1/8 grade offers the most subtle effect in the Smoque series, perfect for adding a touch of atmosphere while retaining sharp detail.
