Tiffen 4x4" High Definition TV FX Image Softening & Contrast Control Filter #1.

What you're looking at is the 4x4" High Definition TV FX Image Softening & Contrast Control Filter #1, a premium quality product crafted from Water White Glass. This filter ingeniously merges the capabilities of the Ultra Contrast Filter with the innovative features of the new Digital Diffusion Filter. The HD-TV Filter is designed to balance the contrast within a scene, while subtly mitigating the overly sharp image effects often produced by high-definition cameras and media.

With this filter, you no longer have to compromise on contrast every time you introduce a soft filter in front of your lens. It employs the surrounding ambient light, not just the light within the image area, to uniformly lighten shadows throughout the scene. This makes it an ideal choice for situations where you require precise contrast control, coupled with a slight softening effect on the subject.

The 4x4" High Definition TV FX Image Softening & Contrast Control Filter #1 is available in several grades, allowing you to increase the level of diffusion as per your specific requirements. This filter is a versatile tool for photographers and videographers seeking to enhance their image quality and control the visual dynamics of their work.
