Hollywood Black Magic 1 Filter
The Schneider Hollywood Black Magic 1 Filter is a 4x4 inch camera accessory designed for photographers and videographers who want a filmic aesthetic. It adds a subtle glow to highlights while preserving rich blacks and colours. The filter smoothens the digital look of high-resolution images for a more organic feel. It suits creative professionals seeking a controlled softening effect.
Micro-Lenslet and carbon design
The filter uses a blend of Micro-Lenslets and carbon particles to create a consistent, smooth highlight glow. It applies a controlled soft overlay on sharp, in-focus images without sacrificing overall clarity. This results in a subtle airbrushed effect that softens details while maintaining image integrity. It effectively counteracts the overly digital appearance of modern sensors.
4x4 inch filter format
The 4x4 inch square format fits standard professional matte boxes and filter holders used in cinema and high-end video production. It requires a compatible holder system to mount in front of the lens. The physical size determines compatibility with specific rig configurations. Users must ensure their matte box or holder accepts 4x4 inch filters before purchase.

Questions about this item
Does the 4x4" Hollywood Black Magic 1 Filter fit standard 4x4 matte boxes used with older cinema lenses?
Yes, the 4x4 inch dimensions match industry-standard matte boxes, so it slots into existing filter trays without adapters.
How can I verify the filter is producing its signature highlight glow on set?
Point the camera at a bright practical light; highlights should bloom with a smooth, consistent glow while shadows stay deep and colours remain saturated.
Is the filter supplied with a protective case or pouch, or must I buy one separately?
The supplier data lists only the filter itself; a padded filter pouch or hard case should be purchased separately for safe transport.
