Description

Formatt introduced a new range of 2mm thick cinema-grade glass filters. The Firecrest Ultra Cine Superslim 4×5.65 IRND filters are designed to keep the weight down when used on a drone, Steadicam, gimbal, or just a lighter option on cinema cameras. Smaller cameras like the BMD Pocket and mirrorless hybrids with stills lenses are already reduced in weight compared to larger cinema cameras, so these new thinner filters will keep it nice and tight with the added benefit of yet another lighter accessory option. Formatt states the new Ultra Cine Superslim 4×5.65 IRND filters are the lightest 4×5.65 cinema grade glass filters on the market. They come in approximately half of the weight of an equivalent standard thickness 4mm ND filter without sacrificing neutrality and optical quality. They are also water and scratch-resistant. I tested them with the ultra-lightweight Bright Tangerine Misfit Atom matte box, and they fit perfectly with some room to spare. This extra room allows you to use a 2mm Superslim and a regular 4mm filter combined together in the Misfit Atom holder. For example, you can mount both diffusion and Superslim IRND filter simultaneously. Firecrest Ultra filters are the first bonded, then lapped and polished filters available in the photographic market. They have a lower reflectivity than earlier filters and a clarity and sharpness, even at longer focal lengths, unprecedented in photo filters, whilst still delivering the neutrality that made Firecrest so popular. For ARRI standard matte boxes, Formatt released a 2mm filter tray. This new tray allows the filters to be used in most Bright Tangerine, Chroziel, Wooden Camera, and ARRI matte boxes. The 2mm slimness of the filter allows two 2mm filters to be placed together in a regular 4mm tray. With the Bright Tangerine Atom matte box you can stack a 2mm Superslim and a regular 4mm filter in the holder to use, for example, diffusion and Superslim IRND filter simultaneously.
