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.
Serious online shop that answered my questions quickly and friendly. Shipping was super fast and the goods matched the description. We recommend. A thousand thanks.
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!

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 ordered Angelbird CFExpress cards (which were not available anywhere in the U.S.) and Martcom was able to find stock and sending me some, which I could not be happier about. Customer service was very fast and helpful, as I received regular updates about my item’s availability. Thank you Martcom!
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!
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.
First time I bought equipment from them, nothing to complain, professional staff and kindness. The equipment was in perde condition and I received a pretty quick email about when to go to pick up my goods. Excellent experience
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.
