Overview
The Schneider True-Streak Clear 3mm Filter - 4 x 5.65 simulates the classic anamorphic streak effect without the use of expensive anamorphic lenses. Long, brilliantly colored streaks emanate from bright lights and highlights. The apparent strength of the filter effect is dependent on variables such as distance to (and size/intensity of) light sources, as well as the focal length of the lens.
This metric measurement refers to the distance between the lines in the filter, which are actually very narrow-diameter cylindrical lenses embedded in the glass. As with any filter featuring a discrete pattern, care should be taken that these lines do not come into focus. This is most likely to occur when using a short focal length lens at a small aperture, and when the subject is close to the camera. It is recommended to test the effect before any critical use.
NOTE: True-Streak filters are also manufactured in 1mm, 2mm, and 4mm strengths, and in seven additional colors: Blue, Red, Yellow, Orange, Green, Violet and Pink. Contact your AbelCine salesperson for details & availability.
