The Tiffen Series 9 Warm 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.

This filter also combines the diffusion effect with an 812 warming filter for providing a general warmth to the image and for improving skin tones. This warming effect also helps to reduce blue sensitivity and for cutting through overly cool tones within the scene.

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. This filter is compatible with Series 9 filter holders.

Q: 5. Thank you to Peter, David, and David for answering my previous question regarding the removable foot. Can you comment on the sturdiness of this monopod? I would be looking to use it on top of a heavy 10' lightstand for real estate photography. I know there are designated light-stands in the 15'+ range but this technique was recommended by another photographer. I'm just wondering if this particular monopod would be sufficient for such a use. I would have about 2.75lbs on it (A7RII + 14mm f2.8) and bracing the stand from below at all times. Thanks

A: Indeed I would expect you to have no issues with the sturdiness of this specific model (which I have owned now for 3 years) in your specific application. It is a daily workhorse for me in low light shooting situations with a Nikon flagship full frame body and any one of a number of lenses I interchange depending on the situation. All the best...
