The Formatt Supermist Black 1/4 5.65 x 5.65" filter is an excellent filter for portraiture as it diffuses fine details in a photograph and reduces overall contrast. This filter creates a softer diffusion than a standard Supermist with the advantage of not lightening shadow areas as much.

Anyone photographing portraits should have a diffusion filter in their bag and the Supermist Black gives you the freedom to create the most flattering images.

Note! Supermist Black filters are available in densities from 1/8 to 5, with 5 having the most pronounced effect
