Tiffen Glimmerglass 1/2 Rear Mount Filter for Arri Signature

Professional Diffusion for ARRI Signature Optics

Developed in direct collaboration with ARRI, the Tiffen Glimmerglass 1/2 Rear Mount Filter brings Academy Award-winning diffusion technology to the Signature Prime and Zoom lens series. This specialized rear-mount system allows cinematographers to integrate Tiffen's legendary glass directly into the optical path of high-end ARRI glass.

Seamless Magnetic Installation

The Tiffen rear-mount system utilizes an integral ring of 12 high-power magnets, aligning perfectly with the Magnetic Rear Filter Holder found on ARRI Signature lenses. This tool-free design ensures instant changeability on set, allowing for rapid creative adjustments without the need for a lens technician or complex mounting hardware. By moving the filter to the rear, you significantly reduce the weight and bulk of traditional front-mounted matte boxes.

Uniform Strength Across Focal Lengths

One of the primary advantages of the rear-mount system is the consistency of the diffusion effect. Unlike front-mounted filters, where wider focal lengths often require heavier grades, the Tiffen Glimmerglass 1/2 maintains a uniform look across your entire lens set. You can use a single 1/2 strength filter for both wide-angle and tight shots, streamlining your workflow and ensuring visual continuity throughout your production.

The Glimmerglass Aesthetic

The Glimmerglass series is designed to soften fine details and provide a distinct sparkle in highlights while keeping the overall image sharp. At a 1/2 grade, it offers a noticeable reduction in digital harshness, making it an essential tool for beauty shots and stylized narratives. Each filter is produced using Tiffen's ColorCore Technology, ensuring the effect remains consistent and durable for professional use.
