The Formatt 4 x 5.65" Soft White Mist 1 filter is a softening and mist effect filter. This filter provides softening to subjects in the scene at medium focal distance whilst leaving the background unaffected by the filter's effects. Unlike a traditional softening filter, the Soft White Mist does not introduce diffusion or colour separation to the image. Density 1 offers the lowest level of softening.

This filter measures 4 x 5.65" / 101.2 x 143.5mm and is constructed from specially formulated CR-39 resin, sandwiched between two layers of high-quality Schott glass.


- The softening filter only affects the subject at medium focal distance, whilst maintaining background sharpness according to exposure settings.

- Unlike traditional softening filters, this filter does not diffuse light entering the lens.

- Helps to minimise imperfections and wrinkles on subjects.

- Formatt filters combine high-quality Schott glass with specially formulated CR-39 resin to contain synthetic dyes whilst retaining the benefits of optical glass.
