Tiffen 82mm Satin 1 Filter

Professional Diffusion for Cinematic Portraits

The Tiffen 82mm Satin 1 Filter is a specialized diffusion tool designed to produce a delicate, understated look. By reducing the appearance of fine lines, blemishes, and wrinkles, this filter creates a more flattering image of your subject. Unlike heavy diffusion filters, the Satin 1 maintains critical sharpness in eyes and hair while providing a smoother appearance to skin textures.

Subtle Halation and Contrast Control

This filter excels at managing highlights and contrast. It produces a gentle spill of halation around light sources, adding a dreamlike quality without washing out the entire frame. The effect is consistent across different focal lengths, ensuring that background atmospheres remain stable from wide shots to tight close-ups. This combination delivers high levels of control for cinematographers using modern, sharp lenses.

Precision Manufacturing with ColorCore Technology

Tiffen filters are engineered for the highest optical performance. The Satin 1 is built using ColorCore technology, a proprietary process where the filter substrate is laminated between two pieces of optical glass. This assembly is ground flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch to ensure perfect clarity. Key features include:

• Water White Glass: Provides superior color fidelity and clarity compared to standard glass.
• Grade 1 Intensity: Offers a subtle effect, perfect for high-resolution digital sensors.
• Precision Metal Rings: Durable construction for reliable use in professional environments.
