Tiffen 77mm Ultra Contrast 1 Filter

Professional Contrast Control for Cinematography and Photography

The Tiffen 77mm Ultra Contrast 1 Filter is engineered to reveal hidden detail in shadow areas by utilizing ambient light from both the surrounding environment and the image itself. Unlike traditional diffusion filters, it lowers contrast uniformly across the entire frame without sacrificing sharpness or introducing unwanted flare and halation.

While standard Low Contrast filters primarily focus on opening shadows, the Ultra Contrast series manages the dynamic range of the entire scene. This makes it an essential tool for shooting in high-contrast environments where maintaining highlight integrity and shadow detail is critical for the final output.

Precision Manufacturing with ColorCore Glass

Each filter is crafted using Tiffen’s proprietary ColorCore technology. This process involves permanently laminating the filter material between two pieces of optical glass, ground to a tolerance of one ten-thousandth of an inch. The result is a durable, high-quality optical tool mounted in a precision aluminum ring for long-lasting performance and consistent results.
