Hi,

RETAIL: $295 (+tax and shipping) , ASKING: $200 or trade

Just bought a brand new Schneider Hollywood Black Magic 1/8 filter and looking to trade for a 1/4 Hollywood Black Magic or 1/2. I only took the wrapper off the filter (still unused) in black Schneider pouch. PM me if your interested. I'll deliver if bought or if trading in person free of charge in LA. Please don't offer any other filters as I'm only looking to trade for a 1/4 Hollywood Black Magic in 4x5.65 or 1/2. Will ship to continental U.S. free of charge.

Thanks!

People are interested but since they are newer filters no one understands what they look like as opposed to the classic filters on the market. So here is a sample comparison. The effect is similar to what the Alexa does with skin and highlights.

Here's an excerpt from a DVInfo article from 2009:
"When cinematographer Brian Reynolds began prep for the Fox/ABC half-hour comedy series Better Off Ted, his challenge was to trim the budget and keep the quality look as well as the 11-hour work day. "One of my first choices was to add Schneider's Hollywood Black Magic filters to our lenses," says Reynolds.

"They are nothing short of amazing," he says, enthusiastically. "They combine the smaller lenslets of HD Classic Soft and added Black Frost. What this does to the skin is amazing. When you are shooting HD, you are suddenly looking at an unfiltered image. Make-up freaks out. Same with set designers and actors. Adding the Hollywood Black Magic does away with that. It makes the image seem more like film."

From David Mullen:
"The Hollywood Black Magics are actually a combination of a 1/8 Black Frost (hence the bit of glow) and HD Classic Softs (a very subtle diffusion similar to Tiffen Diffusion-FX)."
