The Tiffen Series 9 Black Pro-Mist 4 Filter helps to reduce the value of the highlights while slightly lowering the overall contrast. This filter is especially useful for smoothing out and softening facial wrinkles and other blemishes. While designed for use with movies, this filter can also be used for fashion and beauty applications. Unlike a traditional diffusion or soft focus filter, Pro-Mist filters provide little loss of detail across the image. The 4 density provides a very noticeable amount of contrast and highlight reduction and allows for a soft, pastel-like quality of light.

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: 1. Will this work with a 77mm Singh Ray LB Warming CPL?

A: The Cokin Z-Pro Filter Holder is meant for 4x6 and 4x4 filters and will not work with a 77mm filter.

Q: 2. Will this holder produce vignetting with a Canon 17-40 lens on a full frame body?

A: No, you should not have an issue with using the Canon 17-40mm lens with the Cokin Z-PRO Filter Holder. The Canon 17-40mm uses 77mm filters, and would need the Cokin 77mm Z-PRO Adapter Ring (0.75mm Pitch Thread), B&H # COARZP77, to connect the adapter ring to the filter holder. The Cokin Z-PRO filter holder is large enough for lenses with 95mm filter threads, and would be large enough to prevent vignetting on the 17-40mm lens.

Q: 3. I am interested in purchasing good quality graduated ND and reverse grad ND filters for landscape photography, perhaps Singh-Ray or equivalent. I use a Canon 5D Mk III with EF 24-70, f/2.8 (82mm) and EF 70-200, f/2.8 (77mm) lenses. In the future, I may also purchase a wider angle prime lens (say 12-14mm) for landscape work. I would like to be able to mount the grad ND filters on these lenses but am not familiar at all with Cokin or any other holders. What would you advise about the type of adapters and holders I should be researching? Thank you.

A: I highly recommend Cokin filters. I have been using them for a long time. You need an adapter ring for your77mm lens. I have a 77mm lens and a 67mm lens. I also have a 67mm adapter for my 67mm lens. Cokinfilters are much cheaper then Sing-Ray and Lee filters. Good shooting.
