The Tiffen 4 x 5.65" Bronze Glimmerglass 4 Filter is a beauty filter whose function is two-fold: in addition to modifying the appearance of the image itself, it also features a sparkling appearance when viewed from the front, instilling more confidence in the model. The filter itself imparts a bronze tint across the image and helps to soften skin details and blemishes. It also produces glowing highlights and a mild reduction in contrast for a more ethereal appearance. The 4 density provides more bronze tint that the 3, but less than the 5.

This filter is 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. This filter measures 4 x 5.65" / 101.6 x 143.5mm.

Q: 7. I have heard that there was a focus hanging issue with this lens, and the issue was resolved by a latest firmware upgrade. Is there a way to check whether the new stock at B&H will come with the latest firmware? Thanks.

A: Unfortunately, we are not able to access our inventory to check what firmware versions our products have installed. It is not uncommon that from the time the manufacturer ships a product out, to the time it takes to arrive to you after purchase that a new firmware version could be released. We always advise when purchasing a new camera or other device with firmware options to check the version installed upon receipt, and then check the manufacturers website to compare against what the latest version is. If there is a new version available they will post directions on how to update/install, which is very simple to perform.
