Great Filter!

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.

About NiSi Black Mist f/Swift System

Where artistic expression meets technical precision, the NiSi Black Mist 1/4 Filter for the NiSi True Color VND Swift System emerges as a quintessential tool for photographers and videographers alike. This diffusion filter is meticulously designed to integrate flawlessly with the NiSi Swift System, offering a transformative effect that elevates your visual storytelling.

Crafted to impart a cinematic ambiance, the NiSi Black Mist 1/4 Filter gracefully reduces highlights and gently lowers contrast, thereby achieving a dreamy, pastel-like quality of light. Its unique construction with an additional layer of black specks ensures that while the light is softened, there is minimal loss of detail across the image - a notable advantage over traditional diffusion filters.

The filter's advanced nano-coating technology is both waterproof and anti-reflective, enhancing its versatility for use across diverse photographic genres. Whether capturing the delicate nuances of a portrait or the grandeur of a landscape, this filter maintains the integrity of your vision without compromising on clarity.

Compatibility is at the core of the NiSi Swift System, and this filter exemplifies that with its ability to be used in conjunction with the swift system adapter ring or layered onto the NiSi True Color VND 1-5 stops/5-9 stops for additional light protection. The system's design allows for the effortless addition of extra filters by simply pressing them onto the front of the NiSi True Color 1-5 stop VND Variable ND filter, expanding its capabilities with ease.

When paired with the NiSi True Color VND Swift System, the Black Mist 1/4 Filter transforms the existing 1-5 stop VND Variable ND filter into a multifaceted tool that not only controls light exposure but also adds a delicate diffusion effect. Alternatively, for those who prefer a direct approach, the filter can be attached directly to a lens using the optional adapter ring (sold separately), offering a streamlined solution for suppressing highlights and lifting shadows.

The NiSi Black Mist 1/4 Filter's ability to suppress highlights and lift shadows results in a well-balanced contrast that is essential for capturing the true essence of a scene. Light sources are rendered with a strong, yet pleasing glow, contributing to the overall atmospheric effect. This filter is not confined to portrait photography; it is equally effective in night scenes, landscapes, and still life compositions, where it introduces an extra layer of blooming and gradients to the highlights, transforming any direct light source into a more film-like, smooth, and buttery texture.

In summary, the NiSi Black Mist 1/4 Filter for the NiSi True Color VND Swift System is an indispensable accessory for creators seeking to infuse their imagery with a soft, ethereal quality, while maintaining the highest standards of image fidelity and versatility.
