In this day and age, videography’s popularity has further surged. It is courtesy of the advent of social media and online streaming services. With the increasing popularity of videography, it has become essential for videographers to step up their game. They must also take their work a notch higher. NiSi Cinema Filters are the ideal fit for any serious videographers kit.
Your main goal as a videographer should be creating amazing content that is compelling as well as vision-oriented. To achieve this, you need to be the best in visual optics. No other brand than NiSi is synonymous with this!
NiSi has a new range of cinema-quality filters created specifically for videography. These filters come in a variety of sizes and attributes that will assure you of exceedingly captivating content. Let’s have a look of some of NiSi’s best products.
NiSi Allure Streak Cinema Filters
This special effects filter renders a single light ray from a point source of light. The NiSi Cinema 4×5.65” Allure Streak BLUE (2mm) features a series of etched lines spaced 2mm apart from each other. These etched lines run across the filter surface.
The filter creates elongated blue streaks horizontally from the light source, usually seen when you use an anamorphic lens. When you rotate the filter, you can easily adjust the light ray’s orientation to suit your composition or desired effect. Users can intensify the streaks’ look by bringing the point of light closer to the camera, zooming in, or merely using brighter light sources.
These NiSi cinema filters come in two shapes – square and circular, and are made of optical grade clear glass H-K9L to maintain clarity and quality without compromising on quality. Besides these existing versions, you can also get your custom filter created in other shapes and sizes as required. The square version can be installed in a matte box and rotated 360 degrees. The square filter is available in two sizes 4×5.65-in and 6.6×6.6-in. The circular version has an aluminium frame and features a rotatable front with a thread size of 82mm.
To create visually enthralling videos, you need to invest in NiSi’s range of streak cinema filters. These will instantly glam up your videography, helping you stand out of the crowd with your impressive work.
NiSi IR Neutral Density Cinema Filter
Shooting in bright conditions is challenging – but with NiSi Cinema IR Neutral Density filters, you have no reason to worry. These filters allow you to compensate for bright conditions while maintaining your aperture, shutter speed and ISO as required. With other filters, there is a possibility of your images getting marred by unwanted colouration.
The NiSi IR Density Cinema Filter features the IR coating, which counters such colouration of images. The filter also features NiSi’s Optical Nano Coating, which contributes to accurate replication of colours by removing the colour cast. The build quality and features make it a perfect choice for today’s high-resolution cameras.
NiSi Cinema IRND Soft-Edge Graduated Filter
The NiSi Cinema IRND Soft-Edge Graduated range of filters is another essential product videographers need to consider adding to their kit. These filters control the exposure of certain areas of any given frame.
The NiSi Cinema IRND Soft-Edge Graduated filter comes in three sizes – 4×4”, 4×5.65” and 6×6.66”. Further, each of these variants come in different categories such as The 0.3 filter (1 stop), 0.6 filters (2 stop), 0.9 filters (3 stop) and finally 1.2 filters (4 stop).
NiSi CPL (Polarising) Cinema Filter
Polarising cinema filters help reduce excess reflections and glare by filtering out polarised light. The NiSi Cinema CPL Filter arranges and filters out this directly polarised light perpendicularly to the reflected light. It leads to the absorption of this light and a noticeable reduction of glare and reflections from non-metallic surfaces. It also leads to an increase in the saturation of skies and foliage.
NiSi Cinema Pure Clear Filter
This clear filter serves the fundamental purpose of protecting your lens. As the filter is clear, it does not affect the exposure or overall image quality in any way. However, it does protect your lens from dust, scratches, moisture, smudge marks and other elements that could potentially harm your lens or its performance.
In case you have more outdoor assignments, it is always advisable to invest in a good quality clear filter – and NiSi Pure Clear Filter is one of them!
NiSi Cinema Viewing Devices
These NiSi Cinema Viewing devices are not for your lens or any other photography equipment. Instead, they are for you! When shooting on sets or anywhere else, glaring lights can cause irreparable damage to your eyes. To protect your eyes from such harm, you need to consider investing in the cinema viewing filters from NiSi.
These filters reduce the amount of light hitting your eyes directly so that you can comfortably determine the position of the sun or other bright lights.
NiSi Yellow Light Blocker
No matter how much you try, you cannot control all-natural elements during photography. One such element that is totally out of your control is light pollution. You may not realise, but light pollution can mar your images and videos.
Light pollution is a common feature in the night sky or illumination from artificial light sources. To protect your pictures and videos from light pollution, you can use a Yellow Light Blocker from NiSi.
