Rated 5 out of 5

Great filter

Just what I expected when buying this. Instantly gives your image a more serious, ?cinematic? look.

Good glow, subtle peen

Adds a soft subtle glow with much less "subtle peen" than the Black Satin 1. If you aren't sure what I mean, the pattern on these make a subtle phallic shape in the flares. It's much less noticeable on the 1/4 and 1/8 but still there, very noticeable on the 1. Otherwise if there's no flare it adds a soft subtle glow to the image and removes some of that sharpness and clinical look. A little expensive.

Great filter

Just what I expected when buying this. Instantly gives your image a more serious, ?cinematic? look.

How can you enhance your photography The Tiffen 77mm Black Satin 1/2 Filter is your answer. This high-quality filter is designed to skillfully reduce the overall contrast of your images, giving you superior control over the highlights within your shots. It's perfect for those who want to add a touch of grit and grain to their highlights, creating a unique, textured aesthetic that sets your photos apart.

But the Tiffen Black Satin Filter does more than just control contrast and highlights. It's also an excellent tool for portrait photographers, subtly softening facial imperfections such as blemishes and wrinkles. This results in a natural, refined look that enhances the subject's beauty without appearing overly processed or artificial.

The 1/2 density of this filter strikes a perfect balance, offering more contrast and highlight reduction than the 1 density, but less than the 3. This ensures your images maintain a soft, yet natural appearance that's pleasing to the eye.

Constructed from premium Water White glass, the Tiffen 77mm Black Satin 1/2 Filter is a testament to superior craftsmanship. It's made using Tiffen's proprietary ColorCore technology, a meticulous process that involves laminating the filter substrate between two pieces of optical glass. This is then ground flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, ensuring a level of precision that's hard to match. Finally, it's mounted to precision metal rings, ensuring a secure fit and reliable performance.

Incorporate the Tiffen 77mm Black Satin 1/2 Filter into your photography toolkit and experience the difference in image quality and control. Whether you're a professional photographer or a passionate hobbyist, this filter is a valuable addition to your gear.

Tiffen Black Satin Filter Features

  • Offers greater control over highlights, reduces overall contrast, and produces a grittier, grainier appearance in highlight regions
  • Smoothes facial blemishes, wrinkles, and other textures for a natural look
  • Maintains clear focus and realizes a more filmic look than purely digital capture can otherwise record
  • Ideally suited for use with modern lenses and digital image sensors
  • Water White optical glass maintains high optical clarity
