Thanks to its soft effect, the HOYA MIST DIFFUSER BLACK is also great for portrait shots. It smoothens skin texture and reduces overall contrast, giving models a stylish look. Compared to other soft filters, the MIST DIFFUSER BLACK does not whiten the image.

The MIST DIFFUSER BLACK can also create a special atmosphere in landscape photography. For example, it makes for a fantastic atmosphere by blurring the light through the trees. If the exposure compensation is set to a brighter setting, the blurring of light becomes even stronger.
