Used Tiffen 4x5.65" Black Pro-Mist 1/8 Filter

Where professional photography meets superior technology, the Tiffen 4x5.65" Black Pro-Mist 1/8 Filter stands out. This high-quality filter offers a unique diffusion effect, reducing the intensity of highlights and shadows more subtly than the standard Pro-Mist filter from Tiffen.

Renowned for its soft, pastel approach, the Black Pro-Mist filter is a favorite for portraiture. It ensures highlights don't overpower the image and shadows don't open up excessively, resulting in brighter, more flattering images of your subjects. While it does reduce contrast, it doesn't cause a significant glow or flare around highlights, maintaining the natural aesthetics of your shots.

This filter is a proud member of Tiffen's Hollywood F/x series, originally designed for Motion Picture Television (MPTV) use. However, its versatility extends to any photographic medium, be it still photography or video. The 1 Black Pro-Mist is the first full step this filter is available in, offering an even softer image by subtly reducing the inherent sharpness of the equipment being used. The result is a pleasing pearlescent glow around highlights and continued minimization of contrast.

The Tiffen 4x5.65" Black Pro-Mist 1/8 Filter is crafted using Tiffen's ColorCore technology. This involves permanently laminating the filter material between two pieces of optical glass, ground flat to tolerances of a ten-thousandth of an inch. These are then mounted in precision aluminum rings, ensuring the filter's durability and performance. This meticulous process guarantees the highest quality, making this filter an essential tool for professional photographers and videographers.
