Two signature effects in one filter

The Tiffen Black Pro-Mist 1/4 Circular Polarising Filter combines two of Tiffen’s most iconic technologies—cinematic Black Pro-Mist diffusion and glare-reducing circular polarisation—in a single, professional-grade filter. Ideal for filmmakers and photographers alike, this fused design provides creative image styling and precise control over light and reflections without requiring multiple filters.

Cinematic diffusion with natural skin tones

The Black Pro-Mist element subtly lowers contrast and softens highlights, delivering a signature dream-like aesthetic often used in narrative and portrait work. It also helps smooth skin tones and reduce the appearance of lines, offering a natural look that saves time in post-production. Unlike stronger diffusion filters, the 1/4 strength retains image detail and depth, making it well-suited for high-resolution sensors.

Polarising control for colour and clarity

Integrated within the same glass is a circular polariser, which enhances colour saturation, deepens blue skies, and eliminates unwanted reflections from surfaces such as glass, water, and polished metal. This added layer of optical control is beneficial in outdoor shooting conditions, landscape photography, and reflective environments.

FAQs:

What is the difference between the 1/4 filter and the 1 version?

The 1/4 strength offers light diffusion—gently softening highlights and contrast while maintaining fine detail, making it ideal for a natural, cinematic look. The 1 strength produces a much stronger effect, with a pronounced glow around light sources and heavier smoothing of skin tones. It’s better suited to stylised visuals or scenes with harsh lighting. Both versions include full circular polariser functionality.

What other filters are in Tiffen’s Fusion range?

Tiffen’s Fusion range includes FusionPOL and FusionVND filters, which combine its popular diffusion effects with added light control. FusionPOL merges either Black Pro-Mist or Glimmerglass diffusion with a Circular Polariser. FusionVND filters combine the same diffusion options with Variable ND functionality, offering up to 8 stops of light reduction. Both lines are available in multiple strengths and sizes.
