After being the first DoP to shoot a feature film with the Radiant Black Filters, Matthias Bolliger, well-known DoP & Coach, about the Radiant Black Filters: "Schneider-Kreuznach's new Radiant Black glass filters are soft-focus filters that use colored "sparkles" in the filter glass to create an analog film look while subtly influencing black levels and overall contrast. Combined with ISCOsphericals and their vintage coating, they defined our "back-to-the-90s" look and visually transformed the adaptation of the novel "A Man of His Class".
The Radiant Black Filter is now available and promises outstanding results for all filmmakers and photographers looking for a high-quality diffusion filter solution.
