The introduction of the Glimmerglass
filter, a new series of Diffusion filters,
seems to support the theory that when
you “look good”, you “feel good.”
People always want to look their best.
And they want to look even better in
pictures. Here’s another way Tiffen
makes that happen.
The Glimmerglass is the first series of
filters with a “psychological edge.” A
new type of filter, the Glimmerglass
softens fine details in a unique manner,
while adding a mild glow to highlights.
As contrast is also reduced, the look is
one of enhanced beauty.
A first in this field is the fact that the
filter is both effective to look at as well
as to look through. The glass itself has a
distinct silver ‘sparkle,’ which has been
found to be doubly useful. When pro-
duction starts and people see the filter
glittering on the front of the lens, they
become more confident in the knowl-
edge that the filter is working for them
and they may also turn in a better per-
formance.
Bronze Glimmerglass filters are a
variation of the Glimmerglass filter,
with the addition of a bronze color.
These filters add warmth to skin tones
and scenics and have some effect on
contrast. Bronze is a new Tiffen color
and lends itself to numerous opportuni-
ties for creative effects.
The effect of the lighter grades is sub-
tle, with the higher grades becoming
gradually more noticeable, all capable
of providing a beautiful image.
Glimmerglass filters are available in
grades 1-5 in many standard profes-
sional motion picture and television
sizes, as well as screw-in sizes in 52mm
to 82mm.
