Create
a "Filmic look" with the "Top Secret" tools of the movie industry.

FMC
and Tiffen brings you filter insights that take the guesswork out
of which filter to use in a variety of shooting situations. These
filters are designed primarily for professional shooters and are
perfect for prosumer DV and Mini -DV cameras to produce results
that are more pleasing, less harsh and less brassy.
Starting
with the Black Diffusion FX 1/2: This filter gives a silky-smooth
look to textured surfaces; suppresses facial blemishes and wrinkles
while maintaining a clear focused image (The eyes remain Sharp!).
It softens the overall scene without the hint that a filter is being
used.

Next
on our list of need to know filters is the Warm Black Diffusion/f/x
1/4. It provides the same benefits as the Black Diffusion/f/x with
a more subtle effect. With an added warmth of 812º color warming
filter built right in, it provides healthier looking skin tones.

At
number three, and this is an important one, is the Black Pro-Mist
1/2. This filter tones down excessive sharpness to create the "film
look". It creates a light pastel effect while reducing contrast
and slightly lightening shadow areas.

At
number four is the Soft F/X 1 filter. It contains tiny "lenslets"
that soften unwanted details, but maintains overall image clarity
and focus. It tones down wrinkles and skin blemishes while leaving
the eyes appearing sharp.
Which
filter has the magic button that will guarantee that perfect shot?
They're all magic buttons. To find the right one for you and your
story you'll have to test- shoot- experiment-test re-shoot and test
again. Oh- while you're outside testing wear plenty of sun block
- and don't forget you eye filters (sunglasses).
