Tiffen 82mm Hollywood F/X Classic Filter Kit
Soft F/X Filters
Tiffen Soft F/X filters are artistic soft-focus effect filters. These filters feature a pattern of tiny lenses that place small details, such as wrinkles and skin blemishes, out of focus whilst keeping larger details such as eyes sharp. Soft F/X filters are available in most sizes in grades from one half to five, with grade 5 having the strongest softening effect. This filter is particularly effective for soft-focus portraits.
This filter combines the effects of Tiffen's Soft F/X series and their exclusive 812 warming filter.
Star Filters
Star filters create multiple points of light, or "stars", which radiate outwards from a central light source. This can give the scene lighting a more sparkling and glamorous appearance. This effect is produced by a series of fine lines engraved on the flat optical surface of a clear filter. The size and brightness of the star lines produced are primarily a function of the size, shape and brightness of the light source.
You have additional control through the choice of a particular spacing between the filter lines. These spacings are measured in millimetres and range from 1mm to 4mm. A 1mm spacing has twice as many lines as a 2mm spacing. It will produce a brighter star for any given source. Lines in one direction produce a two-point star, just a streak across the centre of the light. Tiffen offers symmetrical 4-, 6- and 8-point star effects as well as additional asymmetrical star patterns through their exclusive Hollywood F/X series (North, Hyper, Vector and Hollywood star effects).
With an 8-point filter, the many star lines can tend to dominate the rest of the image, so use it with care. Generally, medium or larger apertures are sufficient to achieve a good star effect. Always test before critical situations. These filters are supplied in a rotating mount for precise placement of the star effect.
Pro Mist Filters 
Pro-Mist filters, which are part of Tiffen's Hollywood F/X series, generally produce a highlight veiling that appears more as a "halo" than the veiling which extends further outwards from a fog filter. By keeping the veiling closer to the subject, they create an almost pearlescent glow on the highlights. Available in different degrees of diffusion strength (with grade 5 having the strongest effect), the lower grades of the filter also serve to reduce the excessive sharpness and contrast of modern film and lens combinations without compromising the image. The Black Pro-Mist filter series also creates moderate image softening and moderate to strong highlight veiling, but with less lightening effect in shadow areas.
Both filters are also available in a "Warm" series which combines the Pro Mist effect with Tiffen's exclusive 812 warming filter.
Ultra Contrast Filters
Bright lights or sunlight create problems when the ratio between highlight and shadow areas exceeds the latitude of the film. If you expose for the highlights, the shadows appear without detail. If you expose for the shadows, the result gives washed-out, overly bright highlights. Contrast reduction is achieved by lightening shadows without overexposing highlights or by darkening highlights without further darkening shadows.
Tiffen Ultra Contrast filters work by using the ambient light surrounding the image area as well as the light within the image area itself. They reduce contrast uniformly, with little or no loss of sharpness, throughout the scene, even when there are different degrees of brightness in the image. Shadow areas are opened up, revealing more detail, but without any veiling or halation from direct light sources or bright reflections. Even photographing directly facing the sun produces no veiling or halation. Ultra Contrast filters are available in grades 1 to 5, with No. 5 having the strongest effect.
