PolarPro 135 Series Black Mist Filter 55mm – soft-focus filter

The PolarPro 135 Series Black Mist Filter is a black mist filter with a 55 mm thread that lends your images a retro, film-like softness. It is suitable for both film and digital photography when you want to reduce excessive sharpness and soften highlights to reduce contrast.

A cinematic look without any change in colour tone

The Black Mist filter softens the contrast of the image and creates a controlled glow in the highlights. The mist version preserves the depth of the shadows and keeps the colour tone neutral.

The retro-style 135 series

The design of the 135 series draws inspiration from analogue photography and film reels. The filter canister supplied with the lens features a front and rear threaded cap, and on the inside of the cap there is a Sunny 16 rule checklist to help you estimate exposure.
