The Tiffen 55mm Double Fog 3 Filter simulates the effects of natural fog or mist by creating a soft glow around highlights and lowering the overall contrast of the scene. When compared to the standard Fog filter, this filter places greater emphasis on lowering the contrast while maintaining sharpness and minimizing the effects of flare. The 3 density provides a noticeable amount of fog effect and requires no exposure compensation.

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. Does this fit in the Nisi 100 filter holder?

A: The Nisi 100 filter holder is designed for 2mm thick filters. Tiffen MPTV filters are 4mm thick which allows the filter "effect" to be laminated in between two pieces of glass. This prevents the "effect" from being scratched and also makes the filter more durable. To hold our 4x4 or 4x5.65 MPTV filters you can use the Tiffen Pro100 filter holder.

Q: 8. Which Cokin filters fit this holder? P series or A series?

A: Cokin filters are not compatible for use with the Holga Double Filter Holder. The Holga Double Filter Holder was only compatible for use with Holga's own branded filters; they are not the same size as Cokin filters. The Holga Color Filter Set, B&H # HOCFS • MFR # 148120, was the filter kit compatible for use with the Holga Double Filter Holder.
