IBC 2005, Stand 11.241, September 9th-13th - The Tiffen Company, the world's leading manufacturer of photographic filters and lens accessories, this week introduced a "low-light" polarizer to the motion picture, broadcast, and still photographic markets.
The low-light polarizer was developed for shooting indoors in low-light conditions and for situations that do not provide enough light for a standard polarizer to be used.
According to CEO Steve Tiffen, the low-light polarizer reduces glare and reflections and adds just enough punch to saturate colors and maintain decent contrast without compromising image quality.
"It is no match for our Ultra Pol®," states Tiffen, "But it gives the camera professional that little touch of polarization that is needed to keep the scene
crisp, especially if the low light pol is being used indoors with one or two other filters."
The low-light polarizer is purposely designed with a one-stop compensation factor and sets the stage for camera professionals to feel confident when stacking it with a Pro-Mist®, Soft/FX®, or other favorite diffusion filter.
The Tiffen low-light polarizer joins the ranks of other Tiffen polarizers including the Circular, 85/Pol, 812/Pol, and Enhancing Pol filters.
The low-light polarizer is available in many popular professional sizes including 4x4, 4x5.650 and 6.6x6.6.
Tiffen filters are backed by a 10-year warranty. They are used in almost every major movie and TV production around the world. Tiffen has been honored with two Technical Achievement Awards from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences: one for innovative product design, and the other for its unique lamination process which gives complete control over filter color and density. In 2000, the Academy presented Nat Tiffen, one of Tiffen's founders, with a Scientific and Engineering Award for consistency in filter quality. Tiffen also received a 1998 Emmy Award for Engineering Excellence.
