Let the Cinema 4x5.65 Black Supermist Diffusion Filter, 1 Strength, elevate your cinematography with its expertly crafted design to enhance visual storytelling. This premium diffusion filter is engineered to subtly soften high-frequency details such as skin imperfections and wrinkles, while simultaneously lifting black levels to impart a classic, filmic aesthetic to your footage.
Constructed with precision, the Black Supermist filter incorporates a meticulously selected range of fine black particulates, which are uniformly distributed and bonded between two panes of superior Schott B270 Optical Glass, renowned for its exceptional clarity and 4K resolution compatibility. The particulate sizes are carefully calibrated, ranging from just under to just over the size of a digital pixel, ensuring a nuanced modification of incoming light. This results in a delicate reduction of resolution and a gentle boost in contrast, contributing to the sought-after "film-like" quality that softens the sometimes harsh precision of modern high-resolution cameras and lenses.
Available in a spectrum of densities, including 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, and 1, the Black Supermist filter allows cinematographers to select the ideal level of diffusion for their project. The most subtle 1/8 strength provides a barely-there diffusion effect, perfect for those seeking a hint of softness without a noticeable alteration to the viewer's experience.
Tokina Cinema's Diffusion filters, including the Black Supermist, are the result of extensive research and analysis of thousands of feature films, commercials, television shows, and independent productions. This research has identified the most prevalent optical diffusion techniques in the industry, which Tokina Cinema has distilled into four fundamental filter types. These filters replicate the majority of in-camera diffusion effects used by professionals today.

Whether you're looking to bloom highlights, adjust black levels, or create a unique combination tailored to your scene, this filter provides the tools to achieve your vision with confidence and precision.
