PRISM Professional Polarised Lens — tattoo photos without glare, with more definition and real colour
The PRISM Professional Polarised Lens is designed for tattoo artists who want to photograph their work with a cleaner, sharper image that stays faithful to the real result on skin. Placed over the phone's main camera, it reduces glare, reflections and burnt-out areas caused by direct light, skin moisture or session products such as butter, petroleum jelly or gel. Created by tattoo artists for tattoo artists and developed with the collaboration of a professional photography studio, PRISM is designed to improve portfolio quality, social media and studio content without depending on aggressive editing.
Why the PRISM Polarised Lens makes the difference

- ✓ Developed with professional photographic criteria → designed to improve image capture from the camera
Maximum performance with the full PRISM system
To get the maximum potential from the PRISM Polarised Lens, it is recommended to use it together with the PRISM light and the PRISM polarising film. The three elements work together to achieve real cross-polarisation:
- ✓ PRISM light → provides stable, adjustable light suited to tattoo photography
- ✓ PRISM polarising film → polarises the light before it reaches the skin
- ✓ PRISM polarised lens → filters the final reflection from the phone camera
- ✓ Complete system → less glare, more contrast, greater definition and more real colour
Cross-polarisation — the secret to glare-free photos
The polarised lens controls the reflection that reaches the camera. When combined with a polarised light source, the result is a much cleaner image without white glare hiding the tattoo.
- ✓ Less specular shine → removes unwanted reflections from damp or freshly worked skin
- ✓ Better tattoo reading → the design appears more defined and with greater depth
- ✓ Less post-editing → the photo comes out cleaner directly from the camera
Studio use — professional photography of the finished tattoo
Perfect for photographing freshly finished tattoos, healed pieces, close-ups, colour packing, black & grey, realism, lettering, fine line and work where skin glare prevents the real result from being seen. The PRISM Polarised Lens helps present the tattoo with more clarity, more contrast and a much more professional image for social media, web, portfolios or artist profiles.
How to use the PRISM Polarised Lens
Step 1 — Clean the camera: clean the phone lens and camera before use.
Step 2 — Place the lens: centre the polarised lens over the phone's main camera.
Step 3 — Light the tattoo: use the PRISM light or a light source with PRISM polarising film to achieve the best effect.
Step 4 — Focus: open the phone camera and focus directly on the tattoo.
Step 5 — Rotate the lens: gently rotate the lens until reflections are reduced and the image becomes more defined, cleaner and faithful to the real colour.
Professional recommendation
For the strongest result, always use the PRISM Polarised Lens together with the PRISM Polarising Film and the PRISM Light. This combination reduces reflections much more effectively and shows the tattoo with greater definition, contrast and colour fidelity.
