Product Highlights
Creates Glowing Highlights
Softens Skin Details
Sparkle Appearance for Added Confidence
ColorCore Glass
The Tiffen 82mm Glimmerglass 1/8 Filter is a beauty filter whose function is two-fold: in addition to modifying the appearance of the image itself, it also features a sparkling appearance when viewed from the front, instilling more confidence in the model. The filter itself helps to soften skin details, blemishes, and wrinkles. It also produces glowing highlights and least reduction in contrast for a more ethereal appearance.
This filter is made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass and grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch.

The Glimmerglass is the first series of filters with a ‘psychological edge.’” Tiffen has developed the Glimmerglass series of filters for “making people look their best.” A new type of diffusion filter, the Glimmerglass subtly 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 filter has a distinct silver sparkle that has been found to be doubly useful. When production starts and people see the glittering on the front of the lens, they become more confident in the knowledge that the filter is working for them and they may also turn in a better performance.

Glass has a distinct silver "sparkle"
Reduced contrast produces look of enhanced beauty
Effect of lighter grades more subtle with higher grades becoming gradually more noticeable
The introduction of the GlimmerglassTM 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.

Glimmerglass filters are available in Grades 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and 1-5 in many standard professional motion picture and television sizes, as well as screw-in sizes in 49mm to 82mm.
The effect of the lighter grades is subtle, with the higher grades becoming gradually more noticeable, all capable of providing a beautiful image.
Tiffen filters offer a wide range of diffusion effects to help you explore and realize your vision and creativity.
Tiffen Optical Filters
Tiffen filters are manufactured using ColorCore technology, a closely guarded proprietary process that entails permanently laminating the filter material in between two pieces of optical glass that are ground flat to tolerances of a ten-thousandth of an inch, then mounting them in precision metal rings. The ColorCore process allows us to control the color and density of Tiffen filters, and the characteristics of special effects filters with much greater accuracy than typical dyed-in-the-mass filters, which usually exhibit color and density .
When Tiffen filters are ground and polished, the Colorcore is unaffected, so color and density remain uniform. Indeed, when you hold a group of Tiffen filters of the same type against a white sheet of paper, they all look identical -- because they are! Try this with our competitor's filters and you're likely to see slight variations.
Maybe that's why most top Hollywood motion picture studios rely on Tiffen filters for their multimillion-dollar productions, or why we can custom-make an exact replacement for them if one breaks on the job. That's consistency, and excellence - two pretty good reasons why, when it comes to filters, you should rely on Tiffen too. More...

TIP HOW TO
PROLONGING
THE LIFE OF YOUR FILTERS
Filters, like all crafted optics, are susceptible not only to breakage, but to premature aging caused by environmental factors. Most filters are made up of several layers of materials consisting of glass, dyes, optical cements, chemical compounds, particles etc. Even with protective measures employed, there are many factors that can still affect the longevity of the filter: moisture (
prolonged
exposure to humidity), excessive heat and excessive light are the most common environmental causes that can affect the filter’s chemistry over time.
To protect your filters and keep them in great working condition for a long time (along with the rest of your camera gear) we recommend making sure to keep the filters stored in a dark, cool, and dry place when not in use. The use of filter pouches or specialized cases will also keep your filters safe from breakage when not in use. If you are in a humid environment, the addition of fresh silica gel packs or a dehumidifier in the room they are stored is also highly recommended. Protecting your filters as you would your camera lenses will ensure many years of use of your filters.
What do you recommend cleaning filters with?
Hand blower first, if it's just light dust, that usually handles it.
If you need to clean further, a Kim Wipe sprayed with Tiffen/Pancro Lens Cleaner, work in a circular motion from the middle out.
