NiSi Square Black Mist 1/4 100x100mm – Softens Highlights and Reduces Contrast

The NiSi Square Black Mist 1/4 in 100x100mm format adds an extra dimension and character to your images. It diffuses bright light sources while keeping shadows dark and maintaining their blackness. At the same time, it lowers contrast and softens skin details such as wrinkles and blemishes, which makes it great for shooting.

What this filter does

First, the filter creates a pleasant diffusion around highlights so bright points of light appear softer and more filmic. Second, it preserves the depth of shadows, so blacks remain rich rather than washed out. Third, it reduces overall contrast and tempers fine skin textures, yielding a gentle, pastel-like quality in part of the image.
