The Tiffen Filter Wheel 3 Pro-Mist 1/8 filter helps to reduce the value of highlights whilst significantly lowering overall contrast. This filter is particularly useful for smoothing and softening facial wrinkles and other imperfections. Although designed for cinematographic use, this filter can also be used for fashion and beauty applications. Unlike a traditional diffusion or blur filter, Pro-Mist filters offer little loss of detail across the entire image. The 1/8 density provides the lowest reduction in contrast and highlights, allowing a soft, pastel light quality. Tiffen filters are manufactured using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 optical glass plates and grinding it flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. - Pro-Mist filters offer little loss of detail across the entire image compared to traditional diffusion and blur filters. - Particularly useful for smoothing and softening facial wrinkles and other imperfections. - Compatible with rotating filter wheels for quick and efficient switching between densities or other filter types without moving the camera, optics or imager.
