Tiffen 77mm Glimmerglass 2 Filter

Cinematic Diffusion for Professional Results

The Tiffen 77mm Glimmerglass 2 Filter is a premier diffusion tool designed to create a soft, clean halation around specular light sources. Unlike traditional filters that can muddy an image, Glimmerglass maintains an apparent sharpness and fine detail throughout the frame. This specific grade 2 density provides a noticeable yet controlled reduction in contrast, making it ideal for modern digital sensors that often appear too clinical.

When capturing close-ups, the filter excels by softening skin tones and rolling gently into shadow areas. This low-contrast effect subtly mutes vibrant colors for a more organic, film-like aesthetic. Even at this density, the halation remains refined and never overwhelms the composition.

Built with Tiffen's proprietary ColorCore technology, this filter ensures consistent color fidelity and durability. A unique feature of the Glimmerglass series is its physical sparkle when viewed from the front, which can provide a psychological boost to on-camera talent during beauty and fashion shoots.
