ColorMAX series is intended for spectral refinement with the<br />

intended purpose of improving color rendition through saturation and<br />

hue. Curved lenses are coated with a complex multi-layer coating<br />

that removes harmful UV rays, as well as IR. These coatings further<br />

eliminate the colors of light that stimulate multiple cones that result in<br />

color confusion. The final product is eyewear that forces all colors to<br />

explode from their background.<br />

We offer two ColorMAX <strong>filters</strong> with SpectraPLUS coatings; XB29 is<br />

optimized for digital imaging sensors and XB30 is optimized for the<br />

human eye and film. All <strong>filters</strong> are finished to the highest imaging<br />

quality standards and are available in stock and custom sizes.<br />

XB29 for Digital <strong>Imaging</strong> Systems and CCD based cameras blocks<br />

the crossover regions between blue/green and green/red centered at<br />

490nm and 600nm respectively. To prevent IR saturation of siliconbased<br />

sensors, the coating provides a high degree of attenuation in<br />

the near infrared region, from 750nm to 1100nm. XB29 also offers<br />

complete attenuation of ultraviolet A and B, and deep blue up to<br />

430nm.<br />

XB29 for Eye and Film is optimized for applications where the human<br />

eye or photographic film is the detector. Color imaging is enhanced<br />

with increased saturation, accurate hue, and improved contrast and<br />

resolution. This version of the SpectraPLUS filter has two stop band<br />

regions centered at 490nm and 580nm for blocking the prime color<br />

"crossover" wavelengths between blue/green and green/red in the<br />

visible spectrum. The XB30 offers high attenuation of ultraviolet A &<br />

B. It also attenuates the near infrared in a band centered at 725nm<br />

All sensors - human eye, film, and electro-<strong>optical</strong> - have limitations in<br />

how they "see" and record color. Their receptors significantly overlap,<br />

as do the wavelengths for the three prime colors of light: red, green,<br />

and blue. A photon of light from within this overlap region can leave an<br />

incorrect signal on the receptor so that a green photon, for example,<br />

can be perceived or recorded as blue or red.<br />
