  • I need a better Lens Flare plugins!

    Posted by Cinemareen on January 5, 2006 at 10:56 am

    I want a Lens Flare effect with several kinds of light shape in it.(better be similar to the Matrox’s les flare)

    Where can I get/buy one on internet?
    By the way, I don’t want to buy a whole package of plugins…

    thanks a lot

    Knoll Light Factory at Red Giant Software may be what you’re lookin for.

    [cinemareen] “Where can I get/buy one on internet?”

    I sometimes wonder if it’s only old, pre-computer, cootes like me that know how to use a search engine (or even that they exist!). So I Googled “lens flare plug in final cut” and got a page full of plugins for sale. Even more interesting, google asked if I really meant to look for “lens flare plugin final cut”, and I got a page full of slightly different results, with a little more variety of vendors near the top.

    BTW, I’ve found 2 websites to be particularly helpful when looking for plugins: toolfarm.com & pluginz.com. Both sell a variety of plugins from a variety of vendors.

    Oh, Arnie!!

    Some of young-ish fogies do use search engines, but I still come here for recommendations because I never know if the ones that come up when I google are any good! I like to get recommendations from people I trust, not the marketing department of the company trying to talk me into parting with my money!

    [debe] “I like to get recommendations from people I trust, not the marketing department of the company trying to talk me into parting with my money!”

    A good point.

    FWIW I prefer to look at plugins or other software that has some type of demo version. Even if it makes a big red “X” over the image, I cans still figure out pretty much what it can do.
