The Schneider 6.6x6.6" 2mm Orange True-Streak Filteris designed to be used perpendicular to a point light source such as the sun, a light bulb, or a candle. Within the filter's glass is a combination of fine line types whose action is limited to point light sources. Upon those light sources, those lines create the effect of a scene or image that has been recorded with an anamorphic lens and then displayed using a complementary reverse projection lens. This can result in prominent, elongated streaks that are symmetric and extend horizontally from each point light source for the purpose of drawing attention to a specific part of the frame, or to create a visually dramatic effect.

If an image or footage is captured with an anamorphic lens for the primary purpose of obtaining a greater aspect ratio than what is possible when only using spherical lenses on a 35mm format, the direct result will appear compressed and distorted. Projecting this compressed and distorted footage or imagery through a reverse anamorphic projection lens allows elements within the scene to be viewed in their correct proportions. A complementary effect of this process after it is completed is the creation of elongated, blue-colored, horizontally symmetrical highlights from point light sources that can extend through the frame.

Many cinematographers and photographers find this effect desirable and the Schneider 6.6 x 6.6" 2mm Orange True-Streak Filter is intended to allow such highlights to be easily reproduced when using optics that do not have an anamorphic design. This filter renders the streaks it helps to create with an orange hue, instead of the blue highlights generated when using traditional anamorphic optics that are not designed to suppress streaking. True-Streak Filters that are formulated to create red, yellow, green, blue, pink, or violet banding instead of orange are also available, as well as Clear True-Streak Filters that can allow existing colors or lack of colors displayed by point light sources to be maintained.

The line types within this filter's glass are placed 2mm apart from each other. True-Streak Filters with spaces of 4mm, 3mm, or 1mm between their lines are also available where this filter type's effect becomes progressively stronger as the spacing between those lines is decreased.

This filter is most effective for pictures where the light source used to generate the streak effect is a highlight with a significant degree of contrast from the rest of the image. It is constructed from water white glass for clarity as well as color fidelity.

Q: 5. Does it have enough space to fit a Nikon d7200 with attached sigma 17-50 lens plus a Nikon 10-20mm lens?

A: I believe you should be able to fit both the d7200 with one attached lens and the other in the bag. I use mine with a D500 with an f4 24-120 attached (with Kirk L bracket) and occasionally bring along my 18-35 f3.5-5.6. This is not my main camera bag as I use this generally for traveling. I used it for a week in Paris and several days in Quebec. It fits nicely under airplane seats. The zip expansion is especially nice for stuffing a rain shell.

Q: 9. Will Canon EOS 7D with 15-85 IS + 50MM 1.8+ Speedlite 600EX-RT + Extra Battery will fit into it?

A: I fit a camera of comparable size and lenses in the bag - Nikon D800. You'll be able to fit the camera and either an additional lens OR a speedlite inside the bag. There is an additional pouch outside the bag. I fit a water bottle in this pouch. It's not secure though so you may not be comfortable placing expensive equipment in it. Additionally, the padded liner inside can be removed to create more space. I take out the padding when I'm shooting with a battery pack/grip on.

Q: 10. It looks like the main compartment would easily accommodate my Lumix FZ1000 and a flash unit. Would 8x42 roof prism binoculars fit in the expandable front compartment? Thanks.
