SKU CH-W68V-XBYA5

A 49mm filter combining Glimmerglass diffusion with a circular polariser for cinematic highlights and reduced glare

  • Combines Glimmerglass diffusion with CPL technology for cinematic look

  • Deepens blue skies and intensifies colours in landscapes
  • Reduces unwanted glare and reflections for clearer shots
  • 49mm thread fits compatible lenses across your kit

49mm FusionPOL Glimmerglass 2 CPL Filter

The Tiffen 49mm FusionPOL Glimmerglass 2 CPL Filter combines cinematic diffusion with circular polarisation in a single glass element. It suits photographers and videographers who want softened highlights, reduced facial detail and glare control without stacking separate filters. ColorCore technology ensures consistent optical performance across the frame.

Check lens thread size and front element rotation

Verify that your lens accepts 49mm threaded accessories before ordering. Ensure the front element does not rotate during focusing, as a rotating front element will change the polariser orientation between focus adjustments. Confirm there is sufficient clearance for the filter frame if you use a lens hood or cap.

Replaces separate Glimmerglass and CPL filters

This single filter replaces a stack of a Glimmerglass diffusion filter and a circular polariser, reducing bulk and potential vignetting. The upgrade is worthwhile when you regularly shoot portraits or landscapes where you need both a dreamy highlight roll-off and reflection control in one step.

Questions about this item

Does the 49mm FusionPOL Glimmerglass 2 CPL Filter come with a protective case or do I need to buy one separately?

The filter ships in its original Tiffen packaging; a dedicated storage pouch or hard case is not included and must be purchased separately if desired.

How do I know the Glimmerglass 2 strength is right for my look versus other diffusion grades?

Glimmerglass 2 delivers a moderate dreamy halation and subtle skin smoothing — stronger than grade 1 but less pronounced than higher grades — so choose it when you want visible cinematic glow without losing sharpness.

What does the 49mm thread size mean when I mount this on my lens?

The 49mm designation matches the filter thread on the front of your lens; it screws on directly without step-up or step-down rings, adding both Glimmerglass diffusion and circular polarisation in a single filter.
