The Irix Edge Light Pollution (SE) is designed for nightscape photography – it eliminates the yellowish colours that often dominate our pictures. With this filter, we can achieve:
A filter that guarantees the best possible colour rendering for the night
The filter removes the yellowish haze present so that the whole image gains much more contrast
Irix Edge Super Endurance (SE) Series
The Irix Edge Light Pollution is the first of a set of filters produced in the Super Endurance (SE) series.
The optical glass has been subjected to a special thermal treatment to increase its rigidity; in addition, both surfaces of the filter have been covered by coatings that further increase the overall strength of the entire filter surface.
The Irix Edge Light Pollution (SE) filter comes in handy every time we want to take a photograph near to, or in, the city. For example, city landscapes, street photography, or astrophotography.
Control the colours at night
The dominating yellowish colour that can be seen in the picture – when taken at night – is the result of sodium lamp streetlighting. The Irix Edge Light Pollution filter shuts out this yellowish haze.
This type of filter can be successfully used in the city, in the urban landscape, or with photography of the night sky when we want to capture the stars, or the Milky Way, with natural colours.
