Let the Roscolux Dark Bastard Amber, a 20x24" Color Effects Lighting Filter, revolutionize your photography and videography with its superior color transformation capabilities. This high-quality filter, a product of Rosco's premier Roscolux range, is renowned for its durability and longevity, even under intense theatrical lights.
The Dark Bastard Amber filter is the most saturated of its kind, with a light transmission rate of 62%. It's crafted using a unique tri-extrusion process that combines three discrete layers. The colored layer is sealed between two microscopically thin layers of clear film, minimizing dye migration and extending the filter's effective life.
Unlike ordinary color filters that are made by surface coating clear polyester plastic film, Roscolux filters are comprised of two types of plastic. Over 65% of the filter is made from co-extruded polycarbonate plastic, while the remainder is deep dyed polyester. This construction method ensures the color isn't merely painted onto the surface, but is integral to the material itself. This results in a filter that resists heat and physical abrasion, reducing the risk of fading and scratching.
The Roscolux Dark Bastard Amber filter, also known as "Supergel" in overseas markets, is currently the most widely used filter range globally. It's available in sheets of 20in. X 24in. (50cm x 61cm) or rolls of 24in. X 25ft. (61cm x 7.62m). For larger dimensions, the Cinelux line of filters is available in rolls of 48in. X 25ft. (122cm x 7.62m).
Whether you're looking to transform LED lights to a gas light color for a model train setup or create unique color effects in your photography and videography projects, the Roscolux Dark Bastard Amber filter offers versatility, quality, and affordability.
