Short Star
Create Pure, Defined Star-shaped Flares

Transforming Light into Creative Flares

Star filters create star-shaped flares from bright light sources, adding dramatic effects to both night and day photography. They enhance lights like streetlights and decorations, add striking elements to landscapes and cityscapes, and create visually appealing effects in portraits and product photography.

How to Spot Quality Issues in Star Filters: Excessive Starbursts and Rainbow Patterns

Most star filters on the market today are not well-designed; their starbursts are often too long, leading to cluttered and unbalanced images, as shown in Image A and Image B. A good filter should play a supporting role, enhancing the scene without dominating it. If you look closely, you'll notice rainbow patterns in the radiating lines of all four images, which makes them feel less "pure" and gives the impression of awkward, artificial effects. Although Image C and Image D do a better job of controlling the length of the starburst lines, the rainbow patterns are still noticeable.

The Purest Short-Line Star Filter by Velium

At Velium, we believe the perfect star filter is defined by three key qualities: short, refined starbursts (adjusting naturally with your lens focal length), with each line crisp and full. Most importantly, there should be zero visible rainbow patterns. Only when a filter meets these standards can it truly deliver the clean, professional aesthetic you expect.

Ultra-Low Reflectivity Coating: Nighttime Anti-Glare

Our Short Star filter is engineered with an Ultra-Low Reflectivity coating, a feature that sets it apart from most star filters on the market. Designed with night photographers in mind, this coating minimizes stray light reflections and ghosting, ensuring your starry skies remain pristine and free from distractions.
Well-organized Magnetic Force
Crafted by photographers, our philosophy is to understand filter users' needs intimately. With EDGE,
you'll enjoy a seamless experience – removing the front cap won't dislodge filters, and taking off
one won't detach others. Our meticulous magnetic design ensures an immersive, hassle-free user
experience.
82mm Lens Hood Attachable
When using lenses with 82mm front threads, our EDGE filters allow you to attach the original
lens hood, shielding against unwanted glare and side light.

FAQs

You can experience zero vignetting down to 17mm with a single VND filter (16mm on Canon/Nikon), or down to 19mm with two stacked filters.

The EDGE Line is not interchangeable with other Velium (or 3rd party) systems or products.

EDGE filters connect to your lenses via MARs (Magnetic Adaptor Rings), which are available in 49mm, 52mm, 55mm, 58mm, 62mm, 67mm, 72mm, 77mm, and 82mm thread sizes.

Our filters boast Superior Hybrid Magnets with a pull force of 10-11N, the mightiest in town, showing up competitors (4-6N). Unless your camera takes a dive, these filters stick around like a loyal sidekick.

Absolutely, you can stack and combine EDGE filters to achieve your desired effects. Just keep in mind that vignetting may occur at focal lengths below approximately 20mm when stacking filters.

For an optimal magnetic filter setup, it's recommended to match each lens with its own Front Cap. Therefore, we suggest purchasing as many Front Caps as you have lenses.

We recommend getting a MAR for each lens to convert them all to an 82mm magnetic interface, maximizing your workflow efficiency.

The Smart Carrying Case is designed to store up to 10 filters, caps, and MARs. It can accommodate filters with a combined thickness of up to 32mm and a diameter of 82mm or less. If you're investing in multiple filters, this case provides optimal protection against moisture and impacts. Plus, it comes in three colors to suit your style preferences.
