B + W Image Softening Filters

B + W Soft Pro Filter 

Enhance your images with the B+W 43mm Basic Soft Pro Filter. Experience superior image softening with exceptional quality. Shop now for stunning results!

Because the 43mm Basic Soft Pro Filter is expertly crafted by B + W, a brand renowned for its high-quality photography equipment, it delivers sharp images subtly overlaid with a soft unsharpness. This unique effect is achieved through the use of small mini-lenslets, randomly distributed on a precisely plane-parallel glass disc. These lenslets scatter incoming light, overlaying the sharp core image with hazy, diffuse halos. This innovative design opens up deep shadows, while the highlights form a shimmering aura in the darker surroundings, rather than blurring.This filter is not just a "soft focus attachment," but a tool that enhances your photography by adding a gentle, romantic character to your images. It is particularly effective in reducing high contrasts and softening light fringes in backlight conditions. This makes it an excellent choice for both portrait and landscape photography.The 43mm Basic Soft Pro Filter ensures that fine details, such as eyelashes, remain sharp, while skin blemishes are subtly concealed. This effect is not achievable with image-processing software like Gaussian blur, making this filter a preferred choice among professionals, including Hollywood filmmakers aiming for perfect beauty shots.For optimal results, it is recommended to use this filter with a lens that has a focal length not too short and an aperture not set too small. This is to avoid a great depth of field that could depict parts of the surface structure of the B+W Soft-Pro filter in the image. Ideal use would be with a lens having a focal length greater than 24 mm with full frame or 18 mm with APS and an aperture larger than f/16. In conclusion, the 43mm Basic Soft Pro Filter is a versatile, easy-to-use, and affordable tool that can significantly enhance the quality and artistic appeal of your photography.
