Rated 4 out of 5

Ill hold onto it as it still is flattering on some

I was looking to soften my Tamron 35mm 1.8 a hair and i think the 1/2 is a little much but i did not see the 1/4 or 1/8th avail on Adorama's website. Ill hold onto it as it still is flattering on some. I haven't tested enough but also i'm not sure if using it is compromising the auto focus.

Tiffen 72mm Soft/FX 1/2

One of the most reliable names in the filter business gives us several excellent choices for mitigating the "digital curse" of our images. I use this as one of my go-to filters for closeups.

Good "soft".

I use it with Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM mounted on my Rebel XSi and EOS-3. Soft effect is as expected.

Great for portrait work. Nice ly softens the image without making it look blurry.

Before you capture your next portrait, consider the transformative power of the 49mm Soft/FX Special Effects Filter #5. This high-quality, durable filter, manufactured by the reputable brand Tiffen, is specifically engineered to enhance your photography with a soft focus effect, adding a dreamy or romantic touch to your images.

The Soft/FX series boasts a unique pattern of minuscule lenslets, meticulously designed to blur fine image elements such as wrinkles and skin blemishes, while preserving larger details like the eyes with sharp precision. This effective and versatile filter ensures that your subject's natural beauty is highlighted, while any imperfections are subtly softened.

Whether you're a professional photographer or an enthusiastic hobbyist, you'll appreciate the subtle impact of the lighter densities. They produce virtually no flare from highlights and maintain the contrast in your images, allowing for a natural yet refined look. For those seeking a more dramatic effect, the higher densities work harder to minimize facial imperfections, delivering a more pleasing and polished portrait.

Easy to use and adaptable to a range of shooting conditions, the 49mm Soft/FX Special Effects Filter #5 is an essential tool for anyone looking to elevate their portrait photography. Experience the difference that a Tiffen filter can make in your work, and let your images tell a story that's as unique as your subjects.
