This Illusion White Mist Filter from Tilta can be used to create a cinematic look by lowering contrast and highlights within the frame to balance the tonal range between highlights and shadows. Made of water white optical glass, the filter features a 1/8 strength grade, with the filter effect becoming approximately twice as strong as a grade number increases. Double-sided nano-coating adds scratch and smudge resistance and prevents reflection. The rectangular filter measures 4 x 5.65", and the kit includes a convenient storage bag and cleaning cloth.

White mist diffusion filters are commonly used to create a glow around light sources with a light diffusion while retaining shadow detail. It suppresses highlights and lifts shadows for well-balanced contrast. The all-glass filter can be used in any 4 x 5.65" matte box tray or slot, including the Tilta Mirage Matte Box.
