The Tiffen 127mm Warm Black Diffusion/FX 4 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. In addition to the diffusion provided, a warming effect is also integrated into the filter helping to further balance skin tones. This filter has a 4 density, providing a noticeable amount of softening.

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: 7. In the B&H photo named Main Compartment Filled View 2 , it shows a black Ruggard padded foam piece surrounding the body of the camera. Other photos do NOT show this pad and it's obvious to see that the camera can move around inside the bag, unless you cinch together the velcro straps in a ridiculous manner as one of the customer photos suggests. My question: Is that piece of black Ruggard foam pad included with this bag?

A: THE CORRECT ANSWER TO THIS SPECIFIC QUESTION: I looked carefully at what Paul S. asked about (now years ago)... and was almost deceived myself. At first glance it DOES look almost like custom-fit foam for a particular camera body. But after bringing that photo into Photoshop and increasing the brightness level, I realized that this "black padded foam piece" seemingly "surrounding the body of the camera" is merely shadow/darkness. So NO, it's not included.
