Benro Aureole TrueNight RC1TN camera filter

What it does

The Benro Aureole TrueNight RC1TN is a round camera filter engineered for day-for-night photography. It lets photographers capture cityscapes and nighttime landscapes with balanced colour straight from the camera, reducing the need for heavy post-processing. The filter targets the yellow and green casts produced by sodium and mercury vapour street lighting. It is built from durable, high-quality glass for optical clarity.

Light transmission and exposure

The filter transforms daylight into a night-vision effect, enabling handheld shooting in low-light scenes without a tripod or extra light sources. By cutting the dominant artificial-light wavelengths, it keeps exposures manageable and preserves highlight detail in urban environments. The glass construction maintains sharpness across the frame while suppressing colour contamination. No power draw or thermal concerns apply to this passive optical accessory.

Workflow impact

Using the TrueNight filter shifts colour correction into the capture stage, so raw files need far less grading to look natural. That saves editing time on every night cityscape or landscape session. The round mount fits standard filter threads, so it integrates with existing lens systems without adapters. No bundled software or additional accessories are included.
