Tiffen 4 x 4" Black Glimmerglass Diffusion Filter (1/2 Density)

Hi--Black Glimmerglass filters offer all of the benefits of the original Glimmerglass filters, plus, they subtly remove harsh sharpness from modern lenses, adding a pleasing overall blending to contrast levels.

Please call our customer service department for product eta at 800-221-5743.

For a subtle look, I would recommend a 1/8 or a 1/4.

The glimmer glass filter is designed to take the crisp edges off the images that modern lenses and digital cameras produce. The filter subtly softens the image and lowers detail resolution for those who want to simulate the look of film footage while shooting on digital gear. This black Glimmerglass model reduces contrast and overall sharpness and can smooth out unwanted blemishes, wrinkles, or other fine details in a subject's face while keeping the general image in focus. The black pro mist filter helps to reduce the value of the highlights while slightly lowering the overall contrast. This filter is especially useful for smoothing out and softening facial wrinkles and other blemishes. While designed for use with movies, this filter can also be used for fashion and beauty applications. Unlike a traditional diffusion or soft focus filter, Pro-Mist filters provide little loss of detail across the image. The 1/8 density provides less contrast and highlight reduction than the 1/4, while still allowing for a soft, pastel-like quality of light.
