Screw-in type White Powder Mist 1/2

The White Powder Mist is a magical portal to the nostalgic realm of vintage lenses. It creates ethereal flares that vary with the light's direction and intensity, softening reality's harsh edges indoors or under the open sky.

• The white particles within the glass produce flares and soft gradations, depending on the position and intensity of the light source, similar to shooting with an old lens.
• It creates a cinematic look by enriching shadow gradations while maintaining overall resolution.
• Accentuating bright stars makes it suitable for starry landscape photography, especially when combined with the StarScape filter.
• Mildens the contrast of shadows and softens and diffuses highlights and point light sources. (The 1/2 effect is stronger than 1/4, which is stronger than 1/8.)
• The water-/oil repellent coating simply sheds water off with the air blower. Nuisances such as sweat, skin crème, lotion, fingerprint, or compounded grease stains will be wiped off.
