UltraPol –yet another tiffen advance, help-
ing cinematographers and videographers realize
their creative vision.
Tiffen Linear UltraPol and Circular UltraPol
filters offer the best polarization effects available
for professional motion picture and television
work. They extract the maximum of unwanted
glare from the scene and render crisp white
clouds against a dramatically dark blue sky, like
never before.
Distracting reflections from water and win-
dows become invisible with the magic of the
UltraPol filter. As the photos make perfectly clear,
without UltraPol, the woman is hidden; with
UltraPol, her face is the beautiful focal point.
While removing glare, you also ensure richer,
truer colors, free from glare’s whitewash effects.
UltraPols get the most from any scene that calls
for a polarizer.
Some camera-related optics, like a video tap,
employ a partially silvered mirror, or beamsplit-
ter. This may require the use of a Circular
UltraPol, which places a clear, quarter-wave
retarder on the camera side of the filter, effective-
ly de-polarizing the light being recorded, after
the image enhancement is done.
Circular UltraPol filters are suitable for virtu-
ally all situations; Linear UltraPol filters excel in
traditional applications.
Rotating the UltraPol varies the effect to meet
your needs. They are available in our wide array
of sizes and require 1-2/3 stop exposure com-
pensation.
Tiffen precision-crafted filters are the over-
whelming choice of film and video professionals
around the world. Their superior quality is
backed by the Tiffen ten-year warranty.
