Ripple FX
The Handheld Ripple FX features a ripple glass texture that creates an organic "fluid like" effect when held in front of your lens! The effect is reminiscent of step printing & slow shutter in camera effects. The handheld filter also features a center hole cutout that allows you to keep your subject in focus, and have the effect surround your subject!
Ripple Distortion Effect
Like the name suggests, the Handheld Ripple FX creates a fluid like distortion effect when held in front of your lens. The handheld design and center cut hole give you full creative control on how you drive the effect!
2 Size Options
We offer 2 different sizes! Our 150mm is geared more for larger cinema setups, while our 100mm is more compact and ideal for smaller form factor setups! Both options include a 1/4-20 threaded hole for mounting as well!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the 100mm and 150mm?
It is the same filter, same effect, just different sizes. The 100mm is great for smaller setups with lenses that range from 49mm-95mm. When using larger cinema setups with matteboxs, we recommend the larger 150mm version!
What aperture should I use for best results?
Yes! We always reccomend shooting with a shallow aperture (F2-F4) for the best results! Shooting with a deeper aperture will result in a reduced effect.
What lens focal length should I use?
The Ripple FX filter works with all focal lengths, but the effect can be increased or decreased depending on your focal length!
Wider lenses tend to create a reduced effect
Telephoto lenses tend to create an increased effect
Any tips for best results?
A lot of the example photos & videos on this page utilized a strong light source which creates the best results! This could be a light in frame or even a strong backlight. Any strong highlights in your frame will be the most noticeable distortions!
