Tiffen Dfx Digital Filter Suite

The Tiffen Dfx digital filter suite is the definitive set of digital optical filters. Up to
2000 filters, including simulations of many popular award-winning Tiffen glass
filters, specialized lenses, optical lab processes, film grain, exacting color correction plus natural light and photographic effects--are now in a controlled
digital environment using either 8, 16 or 32 bit per channel point processing.
Available in various configurations: as a powerful but user friendly standalone application, or as plug-ins for either photo or video and film post production
software, Tiffen Dfx filters expand your creative experience.
Dfx provides you with everything you will need to enhance your images using
a staggering amount of filter presets. Using the Dfx Standalone or photo plug­in versions, any filter can be limited to a portion of the screen using
sophisticated but simple to use masking controls. A layering system to apply
multiple filters as well as the Standalone’s batch processing system rounds out Dfx’s set of tools.
