Review Summary

I've been using the NISI 1/8 Black Mist Filter, and it hits the sweet spot. It gives that nice, subtle misty glow without going overboard. The 1/4 version has its place, but the 1/8 feels way more versatile for everyday shooting. Image quality stayed solid too. I didn't notice any weird color shifts or degradation. Just a subtle softening of images. The one downside? On the 82mm version, I did notice some vignetting when shooting at 16mm. Not a dealbreaker, but something to keep in mind if you're going wide. On my 35mm and 50mm (with the 67mm version), no issues at all.
