Tiffen 77mm 6 Point Star Filter

This Tiffen camera kit adds a creative optical effect to a 77mm lens thread. It turns bright highlights and direct light sources into distinct six-point stars. Photographers use it to add drama to night scenes, stage lighting or reflective surfaces.

For creative photographers wanting in-camera star

The filter suits shooters who want to render specular highlights as six-ray stars without post-processing. It is not for photographers who need neutral light transmission, circular bokeh or a filter that leaves point sources unchanged. Videographers seeking streak-free flares should also look elsewhere.

77mm thread diameter

The filter mounts directly on any lens with a 77mm front thread. No step-up or step-down rings are included, so the lens must match this diameter exactly. Compatibility is determined solely by that thread size.

Questions about this item

How do I attach the 77mm star filter to my lens without cross-threading the threads?

Align the filter's 77mm male threads squarely with the lens front threads, turn gently until you feel the first engagement, then rotate smoothly clockwise until snug — forcing it at an angle is the step that damages threads.

Will the glass or coating on the 77mm star filter degrade and need replacement over time?

The optical glass and star-effect coating are durable under normal use; only physical damage such as deep scratches, cracks or coating delamination would require replacing the filter.

At what point does the six-point star effect become indistinct during a long exposure?

The effect remains defined as long as highlight sources stay within the frame; extreme overexposure that blows out the highlights into pure white is the limit that softens the star pattern first.
