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.

The Soft/FX series has a pattern of tiny lenslets designed specifically to put fine image elements, like wrinkles and skin blemishes, out of focus while leaving larger details such as the eyes, sharp. Lighter densities are very subtle, producing virtually no flare from highlights or reduction in contrast. The higher densities work harder to minimize facial imperfections and provide a more pleasing portrait.

Tiffen Soft/FX Filter Features

  • Ideal portrait filter
  • Softens unwanted details
  • Keeps eyes sharp and sparkling
