The Tiffen 4.5" Round Soft/FX 5 Filter diffuses strong light entering the lens and produces a glowing effect. While the resulting image appears softer and ethereal, there is little loss of clarity or detail. This filter works by diffusing the light entering the lens with small aberrations; by spreading the light more evenly, a soft glow is created rather than the sharp, well-defined image when shooting without a filter. This filter has a 5 density, providing the greatest amount of softening.

Tiffen filters are made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass and grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch.

Q: 9. This is listed as an accessory for the SX700... does it fit that camera?

A: I don't know about the SX700 camera. My PSC-3300 case accommodates my SX170 camera nicely, snug fit of course, but works great for carrying the SX170 on my belt. Should also work with SX160. Will only fit the camera, no extras. If the SX700's dimensions are NO LARGER than the SX170 it would work fine.
