The gels and filters are applied to theatrical or cinematographic lights to modify the characteristics of the projected light. They can be made of glass or plastic (polyester). Plastic jellies are sold in sheets or rolls to be cut according to the size of the frame.
They are divided into different types according to the purpose for which they are used. They can be colored (color correction) – that change the color of the light beam or correct the excess of a particular color on stage.
Conversions (or also light correction) are another type of gels – they change the color temperature of the light, cool it down or warm it up. They are among the most used. The most common cold conversions are number 201 (cold) and number 202 (half cold). The most common warm conversions are the number 204 (amber) and the number 205 (light amber).
There are also neutral gels that do not serve to change the color of the light, but to reduce its intensity.
There are also diffusers (“frost gels”) which serve to diffuse the light, to make it more homogeneous and free of sharp variations, or to transform a direct light into a diffused light.
The filters are not only used in theatrical and cinematographic lighting, but also in architecture, concerts, television and in photography.
Ho acquistato da Martcom un treppiede e relativa testa fluida che con la scontistica offerta sul sito mi sono sembrati davvero convenienti. Spedizione rapidissima nonostante il periodo e imballo perfetto, consiglio vivamente!
I’ve made purchase from this company a couple of times and found them to be highly reliable, well priced and stocked and easy to contact. Their ‘chat now’ really works (so many web sites offer this, only to disappoint) and the responses are fast and full, so need need to keep going back. I think this is a very good company, with a great catalogue of quality gear (esp their range of Kupo products) and so much of it seems to be in stock which is often not the case, especially here in the UK where since leaving the EU (regrettably) we seem to be suffering huge stock delays. So I am happy to recommend Martcom.

Highly recommended! They have great prices, order arrives very quickly and they are very responsive if you have any questions regarding your purchase. My new favorite equipment store!
The Martcom team was super efficient, the service was very fast, and when asking them about the field they clarified any doubts I could have. Totally recommended.
Once again, excellent service from the team at Martcom in relation to my recent order. Very helpful and responsive to all my questions. Highly recommended.
These guys are amazing! Thank you for your job. I got a camera delivered to Cyprus in 2 day – it’s almost unbelievable. Also they are a certified Canon reseller that I had personally confirmed with Canon officials (having bad experience in the past with another online store). Will be coming back for more gear if needed any filming equipment when in Europe 👍.
Negozio online serio che ha risposto in modo rapido e amichevole alle mie domande. La spedizione è stata super veloce e la merce corrispondeva alla descrizione. Noi raccomandiamo. Grazie mille.
Da subito gentilissimi e a disposizione per qualsiasi chiarimento. Competenti e professionali sotto ogni punti di vista, pronti a consigliare ed aiutare, per toglierti ogni dubbio riguardo l’utilizzo o la scelta della strumentazione di cui necessiti. Sicuramente ripasserò a comprare in negozio da loro o se necessario a noleggiare.
Falsely advertised free shipping for over 500 Euro spend as it says at the top of home page. Placed a large order, no shipping cost added (free) then next day receive an email asking for 420 Euro shipping fee to Cyprus also in EU. Despite highlighting their misleading terms and conditions to them they refused to send the goods. Would not recommend this company as they don’t honour the contract of sale but make excuses after buyer pays.
Excellent service in relation to my recent order and especially the prompt and efficient communication relating to the delivery of the items which were subject to a strict timetable. I would highly recommend Martcom.
Immediately very kind and available for any clarification. Competent and professional from every point of view, ready to advise and help, to remove any doubts about the use or choice of the equipment you need. I will definitely come back to buy in the store from them or if necessary to rent.
I recommend them! Very friendly and professional, they respond quickly to any concerns related to your purchase, or your future purchase!
