A professional-grade solution for enhancing visual media, the Roscolux Light Bastard Amber, 20x24" Color Effects Lighting Filter, is an essential tool for photographers and videographers aiming to elevate their work with rich, warm hues. This high-quality filter is expertly crafted to suggest the presence of strong sunlight, making it ideal for projects that require a natural, sun-kissed glow, particularly complementing fair skin tones with a transmission of 56%.
Constructed with Rosco's innovative technology, this durable filter boasts a tri-extrusion process that combines three discrete layers, ensuring an extended lifespan even under the rigorous conditions of hot theatrical lighting. The central colored layer is securely sealed between two ultra-thin layers of clear film, which significantly reduces dye migration and preserves the filter's vibrancy and effectiveness over time.
Unlike ordinary color filters that are susceptible to quick fading and scratching due to their surface-coated dyes, the Roscolux Light Bastard Amber filter stands out with its robust construction. More than 65% of the Roscolux line is made from co-extruded polycarbonate plastic, while the remainder is composed of deep-dyed polyester, offering a level of durability that professionals can rely on.
Versatile and easy to use, this filter is part of the most widely utilized filter range in the world, known as "Supergel" overseas. Its ample size of 20x24 inches caters to a wide array of lighting scenarios, from studio shoots to on-location filming, providing creatives with the flexibility to achieve their desired atmospheric effects.
Whether you're looking to match the lighting to a specific location, time of day, or simply wish to infuse your scene with a particular mood, the Roscolux Light Bastard Amber filter is an affordable and indispensable addition to your lighting toolkit.
