The Tiffen Black Satin Filter reduces contrast and produces a grittier, grainier appearance in the highlights. Made of Water White optical glass, the filter maintains high optical clarity and provides better control over the highlights within a scene. It also smooths blemishes, wrinkles, and other textures while maintaining a natural look. Ideally suited for use with modern lenses and digital image sensors, it produces a film-like aesthetic while retaining sharpness.

So far I am really impressed at how this filter blooms highlights in a subtle way without destroying the contrast in shadows and mid tones. I also own Black Pro Mist filters and they always struggled in heavily backlit situations.

Is a step up ring needed to avoid vignetting at 24mm 82mm lens? What about for stacking filters, say 1 nd/cpl+ this filter?
No, you would not get any vignettes using the Tiffen 82mm Black Satin 1/8 Filter. Depending on the ND/PL that you use, you should be fine with not needing the step-up ring.

Can a 114mm Clamp on matte box fit on this?
According to Tiffen, they state that the 4.5” filters are not threaded and has no internal/external threads, as they are a drop-in style filter made for adapters. As such, the listed 4.5" size reflects the total size of the filter (the outer diameter) which would fit into a 4.5” holder.
