About Polar Pro Helix Mist Filter

The Helix Mist Filters add an atmospheric illumination to everyday light, eliminating the harsh, over-sharp look of today's digital sensors. Available in both a "standard" (near 1/4th diffusion) version, as well as a "Heavy" (near 1/2 diffusion) variant. Diffusion filters can help soften skin tones and general scene blemishes while still retaining image sharpness.

The Helix MagLock Filter System was developed to both eliminate the hassle of threading filters on and off, while also providing a filter that's safely locked in place once installed. Unlike other magnetic filter systems on the market; Helix provides a completely secure connection using our magnetic + quarter-turn locking mechanism, making it lightning-fast to install/remove filters while also ensuring they stay locked in position during the most demanding shooting situations. Seriously, these filters won't go anywhere until you're ready to remove them from your lens!
