The Formatt Hitech Firecrest Cine Superslim 4 x 5.65" Clear Filter is designed for the all those times when you need a cinema camera setup with minimum weight, whether that’s to fly on a drone, Steadicam, gimbal, or just to lighten the load on your back when you have to carry your own kit. They are the lightest possible 4x5.65 cinema grade glass filter, weighing in at around half of an equivalent standard thickness 4mm ND filter, while maintaining the same excellent neutrality and optical quality that Firecrest filters have become renowned for.
The Formatt Hitech Firecrest Cine Superslim 4 x 5.65" Clear Filter can be stacked with Superslim IRNDs in a standard 4mm tray or used alone in light weight matte boxes that feature a filter clamp mechanism.
This makes them the perfect solution to marry with ultra-lightweight matte boxes like the Bright Tangerine Misfit Atom. For ARRI standard matteboxes a dedicated 2mm filter tray from Formatt is available. This will allow the filters to be used in most Bright Tangerine, Chroziel, Wooden Camera and ARRI matteboxes.
The Clear Optical Flat is one of the most affordable and essential pieces of kit for any cinematographer looking to protect their investment in lenses by protecting the lens from challenging shooting environments.
This Schott B270 super white optical glass is capable of matching the highest resolution cameras on the market today and can provide invaluable protection when using jibs, cranes, gimbals, or any scene where the lens may require extra protection from the elements.
The new 2mm tray is listed separately on ebay.
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.
