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.
Absolutely happy I discovered this shop. The team were very responsive on whatsapp and even I hopped on a phone call so they help me a bit with my choices. They were very happy to help and they really know their products. I ordered several profoto products and they helped me make sure they are what I need. I live abroad so they helped me find the lower prices for shipping. I HIGHLY recommend them. As of now I will shop gear with them!
Very well assorted stock of items related to photo and video. Reasonly low priced. God my Smallrig 55′ parabolic defuser very fast delivered to northern Norway. Carefully packed and no damage. I just found this internet store, Martcom, and I think they can match BHPhoto(US) and EU stores in good service and reability. I’ll be back!
Ottimo store e fantastica comunicazione diretta con il cliente, persone affidabili che vengono incontro alle tue esigenze. Top!
I recommend! We bought 3 Nanlux 1200C Dyno lamps with shipment to Poland. Very good contact with the store – by e-mail and mobile. Their crew speaks english. Good price, fast shipping abroad. Everything fine! :)
I recommend them! Very friendly and professional, they respond quickly to any concerns related to your purchase, or your future purchase!
This is a great store: large stock of professional gear, good prices, prompt communication via email / WhatsApp. The dispatch of the order was speedy, and the item arrived super quick in a well-thought packaging. All in all, a warmly recommended new young store, standing out for its remarkable service. Keep up the good work!
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.
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!
ho comprato da questo sito già un paio di volte negli ultimi mesi e mi sono trovato benissimo… prodotti di alta qualità, spedizione veloce e prezzi ok
Company very responsive to requests for information. Very fast order processing and international delivery without any problems. I recommend it !
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.
Ottimi prodotti, grazie a loro ho scoperto il marchio Kupo ed E-Image che sono prodotti di primissima qualità! Se siete a Milano potete andare a fare il ritiro gratuito in sede e farvi dare qualche consiglio, ma occhio a non comprare tutto il magazzino :) Affidabili e consgiliato
It was my first order at Martcom and I was a little afraid, but the order arrived quickly and at a much better price than at other stores. Although it was a problem with a missing product, the problem was solved by email within a few hours, and the missing product was sent with the fastest DHL shipment. Thanks for the seriousness and I will be back with other orders soon. I highly recommend!
