Cinegear 80mm Liner Handheld Prism

The prism is designed to be held in front of the camera lens and moved around manually. It creates a selective image-smearing / stretching effect, particularly around bright highlights and areas of strong contrast.

• horizontal/vertical light streaking
• stretched highlights
• duplicated or distorted portions of the frame
• organic flare-like effects
• abstract transitions
• dreamy / surreal image distortion

The important thing is that the effect changes depending on where you position and rotate the prism. So unlike a fixed diffusion filter, you can actively "play" the effect during the shot.
