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.
Perfect experience and customer support. There was an issue with the availability of some items and the shop owners quickly proposed alternatives, followed up personally and delivered on their promise. The delivery was fast, efficient, the package we’ll protected and the prices really affordable. 100% would recommend!
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.
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
I recommend them! Very friendly and professional, they respond quickly to any concerns related to your purchase, or your future purchase!
Ho comprato della attrezzatura, spedizione rapida e super puntuale! mi sono trovato davvero molto bene
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 👍.
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!
Franchement au top, envoi le jour même, package au top, matériel nickel en bref achetez les yeux fermés (et ça a été livré ultra vite)
Un vasto assortimento sul sito, spedizione rapidissima e servizio clienti via whatsapp impeccabile (comodissimo!!!!!) Sono molto soddisfatta!!
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!
I stumbled upon Martcom because they offered the lowest price on an item I was looking to purchase, but I will definitely buy again from them because of the EXCELLENT customer experience I had communicating with them. They really went beyond my expectation of good service.
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.
A pleasure to do business with. Was looking for Canon R7 and Martcom was the only place I could find it in stock. Very competitive price, and communication with the company was excellent throughout the process. Delivery 3 days earlier than expected. Would recommend Martcom and would definitely use again.
Great service both online and in person at their Milan office. Perfect for urgent purchases for those who work in Milan in video productions. Highly recommended!
