Create a Soft Glow with Hoya's Mist Diffuser Black No. 1 Filter

This 77mm Mist Diffuser Black No. 1 Filter from Hoya will help you create a soft glowing effect around highlights and reduce overall contrast, particularly in the shadows. This will give your still images and video a cinematic look and film feel. You'll also notice an increase in halation or "blooming" of highlights and specular light sources, plus a reduction in contrast, wrinkles, and skin blemishes for a softer, more romantic look. This filter is similar to filters rated 1/4 when compared to cinematic mist filters.

The cinematic mist effect is created by equally distributing a fine black nano powder between two layers of optical glass then bonding them together. This filter is made of optical glass to retain image detail, but the glass is not multicoated to provide enhanced flares. The slim aluminum frame can be used on wide angle lenses without vignetting.
