The Filter Gallery specializes in camera filters, matte boxes, and image-controlling devices. We have been serving motion-picture, television, and commercial still shooters since 2001. We are a sales, rental, and service-driven company, but we are better known for our technical support, our unique range of hard-to-find filters, and the  introduction of the BLUE STREAK Filter, as well as our VARI-COLOR polarizers.

  THE BLUE STREAK FILTER 
is a special-effect filter designed to help camera professionals create the effect of an anamorphic flare. It is a kin to the clear streak filter which is historically known as a two-point star effect. 
 Because of its radiant cobalt color, the Blue streak has become one of the most popular special-effect filters in today's image-making market. Its end result is influenced by the size, scope, and intensity of the light source.

The Blue streak generally comes in 3 strengths:
1mm (ROBUST), 2mm (CONSERVATIVE), 3mm (MILD).
