The Black Mist Filter 1/8 from NiSi is a classic style diffusion filter for lenses with a 95mm filter thread. Inspired by the popular cinema range " Allure Mist Black" and recreated as a circular filter. Compatible with both still imaging or video, a Black Mist filter lowers contrast by suppressing and diffusing highlights and lifting shadows to help balance the tonal range of the image. It creates a cinematic look and is also commonly used to soften wrinkles, blemishes and creates a flattering image of a subject. The effect is most effective when capturing light that diffuses softly when backlit, creating a transparent light that looks like it was taken with a high-quality vintage lens.
This filter is constructed from optical glass and is available in diffusion grades of 1/8, 1/4, and 1/2 the diffusion effect becomes approximately twice as strong with each grade number increase.
Each optical glass surface features NiSi s Nano coating for an improved beading effect when in contact with water, oil, or grease for greater cleaning efficiency. Constructed with a high-quality brass frame for enhanced durability and jamming prevention.
