Crafted specifically for filmmakers, this 4 x 5.65″ Black Glimmerglass Diffusion Filter from Tiffen boasts a density of 1/4, providing a subtle effect. It is intended to gently soften the image and reduce detail resolution, a quality often desired by videographers aiming to replicate the appearance of film footage while utilizing digital equipment. The filter is constructed from water white glass and is compatible with square filter holders for mounting.

This black Glimmerglass variant imparts a subdued, washed-out appearance to vibrant colors and diminishes contrast due to its white halation effect. It effectively smooths out undesirable blemishes, wrinkles, or other intricate details on a subject’s face while maintaining overall image clarity, making it particularly suitable for portrait photography. Each Tiffen filter is manufactured using ColorCore technology, ensuring precision in its effects and delivering reliable results.
