Dhd 6-Point STAR Effect Filter for Lenses with a 62mm Diameter

A star filter is also called a cross-screen filter. A star filter creates a star-shaped pattern that radiates from a bright light. The number of star points varies depending on the filter type, up to a maximum of sixteen.

Useful Information:

A photographic filter is an optical accessory that, when placed in front of the lens, can make a specific modification to the captured image. Its peculiarity is that it selectively allows light to pass through, thereby altering the light that actually reaches the sensitive medium. By stating that no software can perfectly emulate the effect of filters, we confirm that: the modifications we make to the image directly during shooting, by altering the light with the aid of a filter, will be more realistic and maintain the original quality of the file (in the digital realm).

If, on the other hand, we tried to reproduce an effect through post-production, we would realize that the more we modify the file, the more the overall quality will suffer. Even using a .RAW file, we would inevitably have to deal with the appearance of artifacts and a reduction in photo quality. The most commonly used filters in photography are numerous but share a common characteristic: how they are applied to the lens. There are mainly two types: screw-in filters and plate filters, which require an additional accessory to be used.
