For anyone who is interested; When Tiffen created Pro Mist Filters they created the different strengths in order to provide a consistent level of filtration across the range of focal length lenses because the filtration effect increases as the focal length of the lens becomes more telephoto. A 1/4 pro mist (black or white) will be much stronger on a 85mm lens than it will be on a 25mm lens. A common formula for using Pro Mist Filters is 1/2 Promist for 18mm and wider, the 1/4 Pro Mist for 25mm - 35mm lenses, and 1/8 for 50mm and above. This principle applies to all diffusion filters. I hope this is information is useful.

@kristofeight9668 Год назад

I think is safe with 1/8 and never take off from lens, nice subtle softy image from it. Other 1/4 and 1/2 is too much unless you gonna use in purpose

@oo0RECON0oo 2 года назад

Great way you choose to show the differences in many different ways. Good job! I think I would settle on the 1/8 for a few reasons, it doesn’t wash out as much it has better contrast also you don’t loose too much clarity on the face and I’m sure it will be a lot easier for the camera to auto focus compared to the 1/4, especially in low light.

@DarrellDucharme 4 года назад

It's all personal preference....I think I like the 1/4 myself. But can see in different situations how I would like the 1/8 also.

@MatCain72 Год назад

probably a dumb question but I haven't used a diffusion filter for video - when out doors I usually use a variable ND. Would you stack the vnd on before or after the diffusion filter or would the ND ruin the effect of the diffusion filter?

Thanks for this video, Vu! It wasn't "idiotic" and you look perfectly fine. Don't run yourself down so much, it's kind of disturbing, lol. I wish there was a filter right between 1/8 and 1/4... the diffusion with the 1/8 filter is barely noticeable, and 1/4 is a little too much!

@thereeljohnsteele 3 года назад

Great review. I have both and would say the 1/4 is the way to go if you are running a matte box. It keeps those flares down whenever you are using a flag so the highlights aren’t too distracting and you get that smooth look. It also depends on the camera you shoot as well. From a high contrast camera like the GH5S I prefer the 1/4 but the BMPCC4k I use the 1/8 or none.

@nVuFilms 3 года назад

@blackentrepreneur244 2 года назад

I just ordered a 1/4 for my Sony a6400. Sony images are too sharp, hopefully this does the trick.

@rajeaamhi 3 года назад

i think the focal length also matters for eg. if we are using tight focal length like 50mm 1/8 will be fine and for wide angle like 24mm 1/4 will look better , except for night time 1/8 is best .Nice video.😁✌ Brandon li has done the explanation on focal length using bpm. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9Mf9h2OYwbM.html

If shot at wide open angle use the 1/8 but if you need to shoot a closer angle like 35mm onwards you need the 1/4 for coherency purpose.

@_k2films 2 месяца назад

hello! isn't this the other way around?

@dbean5174 Месяц назад

@@_k2filmsnope. 1/4 affects too much at higher zooms. Like on an 80mm it will be a lot stronger compared to a 23 for example.

@DrunkPhotography 5 месяцев назад

My estimation is that if you’re going to be close to the camera with the light, one should go with 1/8th but if the lights are like across some distance out, the 1/4 is what you want. 1/4 is way too much up close for most people’s needs.

@breisdotcom 3 года назад

I think when it comes to people you may want to blur and soften the image,however when it comes to subjects such as cars, food,jewellry things like that is when the sharpness comes into gd use.

@rogerlee1112 Год назад

I agree with your conclusion. 1/8 is the perfect one to keep on at most times without worrying that you'll overdo it.

@MercUndGut 2 года назад

Might be suffering from "confirmation bias" because I intended to go the 1/8 route anyway and your review really wrapped it up for me. Anyway, I had to look through quite some videos before finding a review that basically shows examples and doesn't talk about how much each one costs for five minutes. Thanks!

I shoot with the Sony a6300 and fujifilm xt1. I prefer the og style of tiffen on my fujifilm xt1 bc I shoot with only vintage manual lens on that camera. I bought a 2 stop tiffen nd filter and paired it with a sigma vintage lens and was blown away. So I ordered the tiffen soft fx nd filter to slap on the sigma 30mm 1.4 bc I like the cinematic feel that I get from my Sony a6300, although I have received it yet.
