In 1989, at the golden age of analog photography, Tomasz Kłosiński founded POL-FILTR in Skierniewice. He traded carefully sourced lenses and cameras, but his true passion was designing his own special effect filters - tools that allowed photographers to create images impossible to achieve by any other means. They quickly gained recognition at the Warsaw Stodoła photography market, the largest in Eastern Europe.

After nearly a decade, Tomasz suspended the filter project and focused on the more stable business of trading equipment. The technical drawings were stored away in the family archive - resting there for years, with Tomasz never imagining anyone would ever use them again.

Decades passed. His son Łukasz, a professional photographer, began to feel the weight of creative burnout. Searching for a way forward, he turned to his father - and Tomasz pointed him to the dusty archive. Together with his partner Kesja, Łukasz decided to give these designs a new life. REFLECTLENS was born.

The online store grew faster than anyone expected. Within a year, the filters reached top photographers across Europe, and the company opened its own showroom. It's a return to a time when photographic equipment was made by people, for people - and every frame had a soul.
