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.
Based in Malta, we had an incredibly positive experience with Martcom. We were in need of product urgently and Giorgio helped us achieve a deadline. THANK YOU, highly recommended. Will use again and again!
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!
What i ordered came really fast and the whole process was smooth and easy. I will definitely buy again and again from these guys.
It was the first time making a purchase at Martcom, the process was smooth, cameras arrived in proper packing and delivery was quick to Portugal. Thank you for the support on the chat before the purchase. Recommended 100%.
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.
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!
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
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! 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! :)
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!
Un vasto assortimento sul sito, spedizione rapidissima e servizio clienti via whatsapp impeccabile (comodissimo!!!!!) Sono molto soddisfatta!!
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 👍.
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!
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.
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 !!
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!
