According to Tokina’s reps at NAB their new rain dispersion filters are almost ready to go on sale. We first reported on them back at IBC in Amsterdam last year and since then the company have made a screw-in version of the filter which they were showing. It looked like a finished product and should come in a range of sizes. Still no word on exact ship date or pricing but I predict this is a filter that will go straight onto many news shooter’s lenses.

If you are unfamiliar with the product check out our video from IBC to see how it works:
