The Roscolux Primary Green filter is used as a color effects filter in photography and cinematography. It is designed to be placed in front of a light source to change the color of the light and create specific color moods and effects.
The Roscolux filter range is different from ordinary color filters as it's made using a unique tri-extrusion process. This process seals the colored layer between two thin layers of clear film, minimizing dye migration and extending the filter's effective life. Over 65% of the filter is made from co-extruded polycarbonate plastic, while the remainder is deep dyed polyester.
The unique manufacturing process of the Roscolux filters ensures that the dye is not easily removed due to heat or physical abrasion. This results in a longer-lasting color and resistance to scratching, even under the heat of theatrical lights.
In international markets, the Roscolux filter range is known as 'Supergel'.
Yes, the Roscolux Primary Green filter is versatile in its application. It's available in a 20x24" size, making it suitable for a variety of lighting applications in both photography and cinematography.
