Camera filters Aulomacolor by Auloma
How to edit your photographs without post-production software
Why use Aulomacolor camera filters
The use of photographic filters are an alternative or complement to the use of photo editing software. Aulomacolour filters are widely used on view cameras and pinhole cameras, but are an excellent product for use on all analogue and digital cameras. The Aulomacolor filter range includes anti-uv, neutral density ND and tone change solutions for black and white photography. This range has been developed primarily for our pinhole cameras, thanks to the anti-UV filters you will be able to eliminate the haze effect due to UV rays on pinhole photographs due to the absence of a lens, by using our neutral density filters, colour photographs will attenuate the violet hue due to UV rays, while the use of our colour filters will allow you to obtain monochrome photographs modified in the tonal range and increase the exposure time. The resulting photographs will have a fantastic effect. Photographs transformed by the filters can be an advantage for later post-production with a photo editor. Auomacolor filters are made of a special optical methacrylate resin, particularly resistant and with excellent light filtering characteristics. The lamination production process of our sheet filters allows to obtain constant sheet thicknesses without creating refraction problems. The methacrylate used by us offers a good resistance to dimensional variations due to temperature variations, up to 80° the structure remains stiff and there are no appreciable deformations in the parallelism of the filtering surfaces. These filters have been developed to make it easier for photographers who try their hand at wide-angle photography of uncommon formats such as 6x9, 6x12, 6x18 and 4x5 that require large filters, the solution proposed by Auloma are cheaper filters than the classic glass ones, therefore particularly suitable for fans of pinhole photography. Aulomacolor filters are available in two sizes Aulomacolor-L and Aulomacolor-XL in dimensions compatible with our filter holders or other brands, either for digital or analog cameras. Aulomacolor filter installation takes few seconds, thanks to the special elastic seats of our filter holder, the insertion of the filters is an immediate gesture, just slide the filters inside the elastic seats and place them above pinholes available in the camera.
How to install Aulomacolor filters on our pinhole cameras

Once the filter holder is fixed, it will be sufficient to slide a filter into the elastic seats until it covers all pinholes on the camera. The system will automatically lock the filter without having to secure it with screws, magnets or other devices. Likewise, to remove the filter, simply hold it at the ends and slide it out of the elastic seats. Aulomacolor filter holders have the capability to hold up to three filters at the same time, so it will be possible to combine different filters to compose the desired photographic effect.
