I currently have a UV filter, a polarizer and a warming filter from Tiffen.</p> <p>What are your thoughts about diffusion filters and Soft/FX filters (any brand)? Are they useful or necessary on this camera? If you have some experience, can you please contribute a few tips about which filters to use in order to achieve particular "looks"?</p> <p>Any advice on software filters is also welcome.

Moire is the 'rainbow effect' when shooting video of fine detailed surfaces like certain rug and clothing patterns, brick walls, etc. Aliasing is those lovely jagged edges in the images when they should be smooth.</p> <p>However, there's a solid fix for that now with the Mosaic Engineering Optical Anti-Aliasing Filter. Here's a vid by cinematographer Glenn Przyborski giving a rundown on what the filter can do in the MkII.</p> <p><a href="http://vimeo.com/27331732">Optical Anti-Aliasing Filter for the Canon 5Dmk2</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/przyborski">Glenn Przyborski</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/diffusion-filter-for-the-hf200#post-54115 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 21:49:21 +0000 anindya49 54115@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I am looking for a diffusion filter to use with my Canon HF200. The Tiffen Soft F/X 3 is suggested on some websites. Is this is a good one to use? I want something that takes away the over-sharp video look, but is not too over-the-top.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/de-saturation-video-filter#post-51252 Thu, 08 Oct 2009 10:41:44 +0000 XTR-91 51252@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I recently got a good deal on a broken JVC GZ-MG505 (3-CCD) camcorder and plenty of discounts on JVC's repair service. Viewing its color performance (<a href="http://www.camcorderinfo.com/content/JVC-GZ-MG505-Camcorder-Review/Performance.htm" title="JVC GZ-MG505 Camcorder Review">camcorderinfo.com</a>), I heard that the Everio GZ-MG505 produces a nice and clear image, but with a neon (over-saturated) color reproduction. Good image with one side effect - the colors are not accurate.</p> <p>I've heard of filters that will polarize and increase saturation levels. Are there any video filters available that will decrease the saturation level with the apropriate size for my camcorder.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/argggwedding-video-gone-wrong#post-50493 Mon, 31 Aug 2009 16:31:19 +0000 Tantrix1 50493@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hi all, I'm new here and need some assistance and ideas. Here's my dilemma...<br /> I got married this past weekend and the ceremony and reception was recorded on my Sony DCR-SR42 camera. The video came out crystal clear and it is perfect except for one thing...I didn't realize that nightshot (infared) was activated on the camera. As a result there is no blue at all on the video making all the colors become totally wrong. I have tried (software) color correction and filters with little or no improvement at all. My question is ...is there ANY WAY to fix this issue so I can salvage my wedding video? Is there a filter that will reverse the effects of the infared filter that was inadvertantly used?</p> <p>Any help would be a Godsend!!</p> <p>Regards;<br /> Ken</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/audio-noise-filters-for-adobe-premiere-65#post-45852 Wed, 15 Apr 2009 13:09:39 +0000 designcbts 45852@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I'm in-work, editing my brother-in-law's pig hunt. The wind noise is very loud.  In addition to lowering the audio and adding music, is there a preferred audio tool to filter out some of the noise...while retaining dialog?  Any assistance provided will be greatly appreciated!</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/how-to-obtain-a-darkgothic-look#post-40845 Tue, 21 Oct 2008 07:26:31 +0000 miky 40845@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>ok im not sure how to describe properly the look im after...</p> <p>basically the image looks greyish/blue kind of like a tim burton movie <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--EV6ox17g4&amp;feature=related">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--EV6ox17g4&amp;feature=related</a> .... and mostly if you look at photos of metal bands... the pictures looks almost like a painting more than a photo...</p> <p>if anyone has an idea of what i am talking about, can i achieve this through filters,settings on the camera, or is it only computer made?if so what is this effect called?</p> <p>thanks a lot...</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/filterlens-proector#post-38601 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 19:41:10 +0000 zzzstephen 38601@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I'm thinking it is a good idea to use a lens protector for my new Sony Handycam.</p> <p>A lens protector comes packaged with both the Polarizing Filter and the Neutral Density Filter offered by Sony. ... so the question is which filter should I purchase to get the lens protector?</p> <p>Looks like the Polarizing filter enhances colors and reduces reflections while the Neutral Density filter may give more possibility of playing with depth of field and balances bright sunlight. Truth is, I don't really know the likely usefulness of either filter.</p> <p>Comments appreciated.</p>
