Message from R&D team
Marumi has consistently been developing and producing filters primarily for photography, as a manufacturer from Japan specialized in filter production since its establishment in 1952.
Through our company’s long history, made in Japan "MARUMI" brand has grown to be used widely as well as regularly by many photographers around the world.
In 2003 when a full-fledged DSLR had started to be used by many camera enthusiasts, Marumi introduced the world's first filter "DHG" series for digital SLR cameras. From that point on, Marumi has steadily made improvements on filters for digital and tried to pursue state-of-the-art technology into filters.
Meanwhile, motion video-/cinematographic equipment and editing tools have progressed, and image technology has followed the evolutionary steps. Traditionally, video production site that was accessible only to a limited number of professionals has started to open the door to many digital content producers including conventional photographers.
"Constantly Continuing to Create New Products”
Based on our development spirit at dawn of new Year, we chose cinematography as our new stage to challenge to cover "from cinema & TV to Movies Filmed with DSLR".
