Tiffen 39mm T1 Infrared Filter camera accessory

SKU CH-MQ7D-CWB3K

A 39mm circular infrared filter that blocks light at 680nm to prevent IR contamination and preserve true colours on CCD and CMOS sensors

  • Water White Glass delivers minimal distortion and exceptional clarity
  • 39mm circular size fits a wide range of camera lenses
  • Cuts infrared light at 680nm for unique infrared effects
  • ColorCore technology encapsulates the filter between precision-ground glass for perfect parallelism
  • Eliminates IR contamination that causes reddish greens and magenta blacks

Infrared Filter for CCD and CMOS Sensors

The Tiffen 39mm T1 Infrared Filter is designed for cameras with silicon-based CCD or CMOS sensors that are sensitive to infrared energy. It addresses IR contamination that can shift colours and reduce image fidelity in professional cinematography and digital photography workflows.

Cuts Infrared at 680nm with Water White Glass

The filter precisely blocks infrared light at 680nm using Water White Glass construction for minimal distortion and high clarity. Its ColorCore process laminates the filter material between two precision-ground glass layers, ensuring parallelism and avoiding the colour vignetting common with dichroic coatings at wide angles.

Replaces Unfiltered Shooting or Standard UV Filters

This filter upgrades from shooting without IR protection or using standard UV filters that do not block near-infrared wavelengths. The jump is worth it when greens render as reddish-brown, blacks take on a magenta cast, or wide-angle lenses exhibit green, magenta or cyan shifts with coated alternatives.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 39mm size or another diameter for my lens?

Choose the 39mm version only if your lens barrel or filter thread is marked 39mm; the filter will not fit other thread sizes without a step-up or step-down ring.

What does the 680nm cutoff do to the image on a CCD or CMOS sensor?

It blocks infrared wavelengths above 680nm, removing the reddish-brown cast in greens and magenta tint in blacks that Silicon sensors record, restoring natural colour balance.

Does the 39mm thread work with standard lens filter mounts?

Yes, the 39mm circular thread follows the common filter standard and screws directly onto any lens with a matching 39mm front thread, including Panavision Genesis, Sony F35, EX1 and EX3 models.
