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.
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!
Ich habe bei Martcom ein Bodenstativ gekauft, dass in Deutschland zur Zeit nicht lieferbar ist. Der Onlineshop ist übersichtlich und einfach zu bedienen. Den Kauf habe ich über Paypal abgewickelt und innerhalb von 3 Tagen nach Deutschland geliefert bekommen. Die Ware und die Abwicklung über Martcom haben meine Erwartungen übertroffen. Vielen Dank
I recommend them! Very friendly and professional, they respond quickly to any concerns related to your purchase, or your future purchase!
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.
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.
Ottimo store e fantastica comunicazione diretta con il cliente, persone affidabili che vengono incontro alle tue esigenze. Top!
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.
ordering was easy and they were the only place in europe to have the camera in stock. posted to the U.K. without any problem.

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!
Ho acquistato nei giorni scorsi una fotocamera e non posso che esprimere un parere favorevole sia per l’assistenza durante l’acquisto che per la serietà professionale e la gentilezza del personale.
Io ho avuto una ottima esperienza con loro. Mi hanno risposto in tempo reale via whatsapp con precisione, competenza e cortesia, risolvendo ogni problema in un momento difficile come questo. Pochi giorni dopo ho ricevuto il materiale come da accordi.. perfetto. Voto 10
First time buyer was wary buying from Italy. Bought a Canon EOS R7 which is impossible to get in the UK without being on a several month waiting list. Well packed and come next day delivery with DHL. Happy to recommend !!
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
