Camera filters have become all the rage in our social media and Snapchat age, but when funny filters accidentally get mixed with not-so-funny live Zoom meetings, hilarity can ensue. That's what happened recently when a lawyer in a Zoom court session found himself stuck with a cat's face.
Kolari Vision has just unveiled a line-up of high-end, ultra-rugged drop-in filters for Canon's special EF-to-RF mount adapter with a built-in filter slot.
