Questions & Answers

Shopper : Does it make the picture too soft and lacking in contrast?ANDREW R : From Tiffen "A new type of diffusion filter, the Glimmerglass subtly softens fine details in a unique manner, while adding a mild glow to highlights. As contrast is also reduced, the look is one of enhanced beauty."
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?CODY M : I chose this Glimmerglass diffusion at #5, because it just adds such a glow that I think can't quite be done in Digital Photography. I've used Glimmerglass 1 and it's great but you can fully achieve that in post by dropping your Dehaze+ dropping some clarity. For nearly $100 it just doesn't make sense. Go for the glimmerglass 2-5 if you really want that glow. If you're in cinematography then 1 would obviously help but given technology now you can at least somewhat recreate that. Hope this helps!

Glimmerglass 3

Tiffen filters are always good quality and this is no exception. The effect is noticeable but not to the point where it makes the image look bad. I will definitely use this for a certain type of shot and not an every shot scenario.

Subtle but pleasant.

Subtle but pleasant effect, softens things slightly and gives a small amount of bloom without impacting overall contrast. Somewhat absurdly the description says that the sparkling filter will instill confidence in your subjects while shooting portraits but my friend just thought my lens was dirty, so take that claim with a grain of salt.

Soften it up

I love the way it makes highlights look. On my daily camera I don't need clinical sharpness. A little softness and halation gives the photos a bit more character for me.

Great companion for the X100V

Using it on an X100V and I'm really liking the results I'm getting.

A filmmakers friend

I really appreciate this lens filter. Images with heavy highlights or practical lighting looks much more pleasing and less digital. Highly recommend if you're going for a more filmic look.

My "go to" filter for human subjects.

If I am taking photos of family this filter is my "go to" tool! Love the warm color on skin tones.

Exactly what I needed arrived in a timely fashion.

Under the trusted brand name of Tiffen, the 77mm Glimmerglass Diffusion Filter #5 stands as a testament to high-quality, durable, and effective photography equipment. This innovative filter is the first in a series designed with a unique "psychological edge," aimed at enhancing the beauty of your subjects and boosting their confidence during shoots.

The Glimmerglass Diffusion Filter is not just a tool, but a versatile accessory that adds an artistic touch to your photography. It subtly softens fine details, adding a mild, dreamy glow to highlights and reducing contrast to create an overall effect of enhanced beauty. This makes it an ideal choice for portrait photography, where the goal is often to present subjects in the most flattering light.

However, the Glimmerglass Diffusion Filter's versatility extends beyond portraits. It can be used in a variety of photography styles to introduce a creative, soft focus effect.

One of the standout features of this filter is its distinct silver sparkle. This isn't just for show - it serves a dual purpose. Not only does it assure photographers that the filter is working effectively, but it also boosts the confidence of subjects when they see the glittering on the front of the lens, potentially leading to a better performance.

Easy to use and highly effective, the 77mm Glimmerglass Diffusion Filter #5 is a testament to Tiffen's commitment to producing top-tier photography equipment. This filter is a must-have for photographers seeking to add a touch of creative control and enhanced beauty to their images.
