NiSi Filter Black Mist Kit 72mm – Softens highlights and reduces contrast for a pleasant diffusion

This NiSi Filter Black Mist Kit 72mm includes two circular Black Mist filters and accessories to help you shape light and atmosphere in your images. The kit softens bright highlights while keeping shadows dark, lowers contrast, and reduces visible blemishes and wrinkles, making it an effective tool for visual storytelling and controlled diffusion.

What the Black Mist filters do

The NiSi Black Mist filters add an extra dimension and character to your pictures. They diffuse light sources to create a pleasant bloom, yet shadows retain their depth and blackness. At the same time, the filters lower contrast and soften wrinkles and blemishes, which makes them great for shooting.

Many strategies have been developed to soften or diffuse images and the NiSi Black Mist filters provide one such approach by reducing excess sharpness and contrast while maintaining image detail compared to traditional diffusion filters.
