Multiple-image prisms. If several different wedges are combined in one piece, each displaces the subject differently. Prismatic accessories are made in this way to give superimposed multiple images. The number and position of the images are decided by the number and angle of the facets of the accessory.

Un filtre à facettes se présente comme un filtre ordinaire avec la différence que le verre est traité avec des prismes. Chaque prisme produit une image. C'est ainsi que plusieurs images peuvent se reproduire dans une seule photo.
