Schneider 6.6x6.6" Classic Soft 1 Professional Glass Filter

Just imagine capturing stunning, professional-grade photographs with the Schneider 6.6x6.6" Classic Soft 1 Professional Glass Filter. This innovative filter is meticulously designed with hundreds of Micro-Lenslets evenly distributed throughout, creating a unique softening effect that effortlessly smooths out blemishes and minimizes wrinkles. The stronger grades, such as 1 & 2, add a captivating mood to your scene by causing highlights to glow softly.

Crafted from crystal-clear, water-white optical glass, this high-quality filter is diamond cut, then ground and polished to achieve precise flatness and plane-parallelism. This ensures an exact parallel relationship between the front and back filter surfaces. The perfection of this process is verified by a laser interferometer, ensuring that your Schneider filter delivers consistent density and proper light transmission. This level of ultra-high consistency allows photographers and cinematographers to swap like filters mid-shoot with no discernible variation in color or effect.

The Schneider 6.6x6.6" Classic Soft 1 Professional Glass Filter is not just about delivering superior image quality; it's also built to withstand the most rigorous demands on set or location. Many of our filters feature Schneider's specially formulated hard anti-reflective (AR) coating to resist flaking, peeling, and scratching. This proprietary coating also reduces light loss and flare to less than 1% per surface, a significant improvement compared to untreated glass that has a light loss of 4% per surface.

Our filters are equipped with virtually jam-proof brass precision mounting rings, while unmounted Schneider laminated filters are protected against delamination and edge-chipping by Schneider's unique Edge Seal. This innovative feature also reduces edge reflection and edge flare.

Contrary to the common perception that filters should not be used in front of long length lenses, Schneider filters, thanks to their high-quality construction and precise manufacturing techniques, can be used in front of even the longest lens without compromising image quality. Experience unsurpassed clarity, light transmission, and color saturation with the Schneider 6.6x6.6" Classic Soft 1 Professional Glass Filter, the clear choice for any lens.
