Questions about this gear
What does the Blue Flare FX filter do?
It creates horizontal blue streaks from bright light sources, giving your footage a cinematic anamorphic look using standard spherical lenses.
Does it fit my lens?
It fits any lens with a 77mm front thread. If your lens is smaller, you can use a step-up ring to mount it.
Can I change the angle of the flare?
Yes, the filter has a rotating frame that allows you to position the streaks horizontally, vertically, or at any custom angle.
Does it affect the sharpness of my image?
While it adds a flare effect, the high-quality optical glass ensures that the rest of your image remains sharp and clear.
