Lens manufacturers have long-strived to eliminate any strange aberrations or optical artifacts from their designs so that they can deliver an accurate image. Of course one man’s aberration is another man’s art, and many miss the “personality” of certain older lens designs. One common visual artifact was the blue horizontal flare that some older anamorphic lenses would create off bright highlights. A streak filter is an effective and easy way to replicate this look. Watch the video to see how simple and effective these colored streak filters are.
We carry a large inventory of Tiffen and Schneider filters in all popular sizes. If you can't find what you're looking for, please ask – we may just have it in-store.
