Stardust

The Stardust Filter

The Stardust Filter by SZ Filters adds a soft, sparkling texture to your images. It scatters tiny iridescent highlights across the frame, creating a dreamy, magical feel — all captured in-camera, with no editing needed.

This filter is perfect for portraits, weddings, and creative shoots where emotion and light meet. The effect mimics floating particles or glitter in the air, adding depth and visual poetry to your work.

It works best when used with backlight or small point light sources. And for an even more pronounced effect, we recommend using wider apertures, particularly around f/1.4 to f/2.8. The results will vary depending on the aperture, giving you full creative control.

Key Features:

• Creates a subtle iridescent sparkle across your image

• Ideal for dreamy portraits, romantic scenes, and editorial visuals

• Recommended for use with wide apertures (f/1.4–f/2.8)

• Best results with backlight or point light sources

• All effects are made in-camera, no post-production needed

• Handcrafted by SZ Filters for artists and visual storytellers

Capture the shimmer. Shape the light. Tell your story — with the Stardust Filter.

You can combine it with all our available flat Filters such as the Mystic Dream or the Rainbow Starlight. Try it with our Filter Magnet Pro system for even easier use!

*All our filters are in 77mm size, and the reason is that after researching and using filters in various lens sizes, we found it to be the ideal size for use with any existing diameter using our Adapter Rings  and Filter Magnet Pro. We’re not interested in selling you a different filter for every lens you have; our focus is on enabling you to create incredible images with simplicity, speed, and creativity.
