About Schneider Classic Soft Filter

Schneider Optics 4x5.65" Classic Soft 2 Filter can be used freely without fear of compromising the high quality of modern lenses. This filter is made possible by state-of-the-art optical technology and a proprietary Schneider manufacturing technique that produces a Micro-Lenslet array. This filter blends small wrinkles and blemishes while maintaining overall sharp focus that conceals the fact that a softening filter was used.

In the normal range of exposure, this filter imparts only a closely confined, very subtle glow to highlights. If large amounts of overexposure exist in a scene, like a "blown" window, Classic Soft filter adds a stylish glow that keep the scene's contrast under control, while adding a romantic look. This strength achieves a range from subtle to heavy diffusion.
