The Tiffen 138mm Smoque 4 Filter is a unique diffusion filter that provides a smoky, hazy quality to your images, emulating the effects of a smoke or fog machine. This filter is ideal for use in situations where smoke could typically be encountered, but is not available or present. The 4 density provides more smoke effect than the 3.

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

Q: 1. What specifically is the UV haze filter (brand, model, etc) that is included in this package? (It would be nice to have the details explained in the description)

A: The UV haze filter will help to cut through UV haze especially with landscape photography. However, I feel that the most important reason for using the filter is to protect the lens. Putting the filter on is the first thing I do when I get the lens. It is a lot less expensive to replace a scratched filter than a scratched lens, which is bound to happen with use over time.
