PolarPro 135 Series Gold Mist Filter 62mm – Warm Kodak Gold-style Highlights with Reduced Contrast
The PolarPro 135 Series Gold Mist Filter adds a retro-golden glow to your images by reducing contrast in the highlights and warming highlight tones. It produces softer image quality with film-inspired looks that reference Kodak Gold film and classic 70s aesthetics.

The Gold Mist filter reduces contrast in bright areas while adding a warm glow to highlights. As a result, images appear softer in quality with neutral shadows and warmer highlights. Photographers and filmmakers use it to achieve nostalgic, cinematic tones inspired by retro film grades.

The 135 Series combines modern glass technology with a throwback design. Each filter ships in a retro film canister that features a front and rear threaded cover. Inside the cap, you’ll find a quick Sunny 16 Rule cheat sheet to help with exposure adjustments on the go.
