SOME PRACTICAL TIPS

Star filter gives a beautiful and romantic effect, emanating multiple rays of light coming out from a point source of light, or a bright object in the image. The rays appearance may differ depending on aperture setting, size, strength of the light source and the distance to the camera. Find the best angle of the star effect according to your personal intentions of the composition by rotating the filter frame. When shooting video rotate the frame to achieve dynamic and rhythmical movements of the beam flares.
