58mm Black Mist 1/4 + 1/8 Filters Kits Nano-Klear Series - Multi-Layer Coated Cinematic Effect Filters for Camera Lens
SKU: SKU.1712V1
The K&F Concept 72mm Black Diffusion 1/4 Filter Mist Cinematic Effect Filter with 18 Multi-Layer Coatings for Video/Vlog/Portrait Photography (K-Series)
This is a 1/4 stop black diffusion filter that lowers contrast and makes highlights glow. It’s not quite a soft focus filter, it does give the overall image a softer, dreamier and glowey effect. K&F filters are very well made and very well engineered. I have been using several of their filters recently and I rate them among some of the best in the business. These black diffusion effects are pleasing and subtle at least with the 1/4 and 1/8 stop filters. The effect gets more extreme with the 1/2 and 1 stop models. These are great for wedding, glamor and portraits, or anything you want to have a soft diffused glow to the image. Equally effective for video and photos. A fun effect to play with for added drama and vibe. Works best with scenes with lots of background highlights, or very backlit scenes. Modern lenses and sensors are so sharp that sometimes you just want a softer vibe, this is a good tool in the tool box for an instant dreamy and dramatic quality.

his K&F Concept filter screwed on smoothly to my lens, without any of the harsh turning sounds other filters made that I have tried. This filter is rather unique in my collection.
I own a lot of UV filters, but this is a diffusion filter. It produces a noticeable glow around light sources. It is a 1/4 strength filter and did produce more of a glow than another brand's 1/8 filter that I tried.
The filter itself feels thick and substantial.
You can really see the diffusion coating on the glass.
Overall, I am happy with this filter and it did what it is supposed to do. It produces a glow that is a bit

I've mainly shot landscapes, architecture and still-life images but in the past year have begun doing more people and night shooting. This lens, at 1/2 mist creates a very mild glow and softness to images without sacrificing detail. I've added a touch of glow to some people and macro flower images in post processing, but using a filter to get the effect in-camera produces a much more subtle and natural look.
The filter itself is extremely well made, attaches to my lens smoothly and easily and is just as easily removed. Optically, it's spot on and produces no distortion or unwanted artifacts.
K&F filters are every bit as good as the significantly more expensive German filters I've purchased and this is now my go-to brand.

The filters from K&F Concept are rated here. The filters are used together with three cleaning cloths for objective lenses or filters.
The filter fits my Sony Alpha 6400 with 3.5-5.6/18-135mm lens. With a little sensitivity, the filter can be easily screwed onto the lens and then sticks firmly.
The main purpose of the filter is that the light has significantly softer transitions and edges than without it.
However, this is the lowest level, so the differences are really only minimal.
In principle, the packaging is not quite as practical, as the filter must be repeatedly wrapped in the plastic film and then in the plastic packaging.

Filter is well made and feels solid in the hands. I like it has the textured grip on to the edges to make it easier to screw and unscrew. This quarter strength black diffusion filter provides just the right amount of diffusion to the highlights without being overbearing. I feel like any more, and it would be obvious that you have a filter on, but any less, it would go unnoticed. Useful bit to have in your kit.

This is just what I needed. I've been building out my iPhone video rig setup and have been running into the issue that all newer iPhones have with over sharpening images and video. This filter is very very mild, but just strong enough to cut that sharpness. I have it mounted to the Moment universal filter mount adapter, with an ND filter also from K&F, and use a third party app to control the shutter speed and white balance which helps add a bit of motion blur and a more natural depth of field than the cinematic mode in the native camera app. This filter will pretty much live on my iPhone while filming. Works especially well with that ND filter, but on overcast days I just use this Black Diffusion filter and it works great.

This is a diffusion filter for cameras. I have the variant for 58mm filter threads here. The Black Mist 1/4 filter creates a more softening effect. It looks really nice, but you really have to look closely to see something. However, you can see it in direct comparison. In any case, it is not “too much.”
The filter is well made and fits any lens and camera with an appropriate filter diameter. (I've tested it on 3 different cameras)

As with any filter you put over your lens you are limited to all the images having the soft focus effect. As a digital photographer I have mostly moved to creating effects on my images in post production in Photoshop where you can selectively choose the type and extent of the effect to each image. Early in my career I was using special soft focus filters designed and created by the motion picture industry but I no longer have that set and I wanted to see if this filter would emulate that effect. It does a decent job but it falls short of that system that had multiple filters of varying degrees of soft focus but I knew that when I bought this filter. It's nice to have this filter when I know I will need it for certain subjects but for the most part I will be creating my own filter effects in Photoshop for most jobs. Good value for the money also.

I mainly use this great filter for live concerts.
With the filter effect, you can capture wonderful lighting moods.
The workmanship of the filter is good and it feels very high-quality.
Unlike the premium models from K&F, this filter comes in a plastic box, which is not easy to open the first time.
I am satisfied with the performance of the filter and would buy it again.
