Irix Photography Filters – Precision That Makes a Difference

Irix, a brand known for its precision optics and innovative solutions, offers high-quality Irix Edge filters that meet the expectations of both amateurs and professionals.

Irix Edge Screw-in Filters – A Classic Solution for Everyone

The most universal choice is Irix Edge screw-in filters, available in a wide range of diameters – from 52 mm to 105 mm. They provide the highest image quality, minimizing unwanted reflections and improving contrast.

Types of Irix Edge Screw-in Filters:

UV Filters – In addition to protecting the front lens from dust, dirt, and scratches, they block UV radiation, helping to avoid unwanted haze in photos, especially outdoors.

Polarizing Filters (CPL) – Eliminate reflections, enhance color saturation, and increase contrast, making them ideal for landscape photography.

Neutral Density (ND) Filters – Reduce the amount of light entering the sensor, allowing for longer exposures and achieving effects like blurred water or motion streaks. Available in ND4, ND8, ND16, ND32, ND64, ND128, ND1000, ND32000, as well as Vari ND for adjustable effect control.

Light Pollution Filter – Reduces yellow and orange hues caused by artificial lighting, making it perfect for astrophotography.
