Tiffen Pro-Mist 1 58 mm Filter The Tiffen Pro-Mist 1 58 mm Filter helps reduce the value of highlights whilst significantly decreasing overall contrast. This filter is particularly useful for softening and smoothing facial wrinkles and other imperfections. Whilst 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 preserve image detail. Density 1 offers more contrast and highlight reduction than 1/2, but less than 2, whilst allowing for a soft, pastel light quality. Tiffen filters are manufactured using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass, polishing it to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, then mounting it on precision metal rings. - Pro-Mist filters preserve image detail better compared to traditional diffusion and blur filters. - Particularly useful for softening and smoothing facial wrinkles and other imperfections.
