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.
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!
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
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 !!
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!
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 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.
Ottimo store e fantastica comunicazione diretta con il cliente, persone affidabili che vengono incontro alle tue esigenze. Top!
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!
