- Produces glowing highlights and a slight reduction in contrast for a more ethereal image appearance.
- Helps soften skin details, blemishes, and wrinkles.
- When viewed from the subject's perspective, the filter appears to be sparkling and helps instill confidence in models, resulting in a potentially better performance.
- Enables slow shutter speeds to be used, especially with high-speed ISOs, to record movement in subjects such as waterfalls, clouds, or cars.
- Decreases depth of field by allowing wider apertures to be used, which helps separate subjects from their background.
- Allows cine and video cameras to film snow, sand, or other bright scenes which could cause overexposure.
- Decreases the effective ISO of high-speed film (above ISO 400) and allow it to be used outdoors in bright situations.
