NiSi Filter Professional Black Mist Kit 95mm – Soft diffusion that preserves deep blacks

This NiSi Filter Professional Black Mist Kit includes three circular Black Mist filters in strengths 1/2, 1/4 and 1/8, plus a NiSi filter pouch and a cleaning cloth.

What the kit contains

• Three Black Mist circular filters in strengths: 1/2, 1/4 and 1/8
• NiSi filter pouch for circular filters
• Cleaning cloth

How the Black Mist filters affect your images

The NiSi Black Mist filters create a soft, pastel-like quality of light and add an extra layer of black specks to the image. Consequently, light sources receive a pleasant diffusion while shadows retain their shade and blackness. Moreover, these filters lower overall contrast and help soften skin imperfections such as wrinkles and blemishes, which makes them great for shooting.

Importantly, the design provides little loss of detail across the image compared to traditional diffusion filters. Therefore, you gain atmosphere and softness without sacrificing fine image information.

Strength options and availability

The NiSi Black Mist Filters come in three strengths. Choose the amount of diffusion that fits your creative intent:

• 1/2 — the strongest effect
• 1/4 — a medium effect
• 1/8 — a subtle, small effect

NiSi offers circular Black Mist filters in several sizes, including 49, 52, 67, 72, 77, 82 and 95mm. This kit specifically uses the 95mm size.

Practical use and workflow

Use the stronger 1/2 filter when you want a pronounced diffusion effect. Switch to 1/4 for moderate softening, and select 1/8 when you prefer only a subtle touch. Because the filters retain blackness in shadows and preserve image detail relatively well, you can add atmosphere without completely sacrificing contrast or clarity.
