The 95mm, 1/2-grade Tilta Illusion Black Mist Filter 95mm 1/2from Tilta Illusion Black Mist Filter 95mm 1/2is a nano-coated diffusion filter designed for the circular 95mm standard of the Tilta Mirage matte box. By reducing contrast and producing a subtle glow around light sources, this filter creates a soft visual atmosphere but still retains more sharpness, detail, and contrast in the shadows than possible with a standard mist filter. It's ideal for users looking for a classic diffused look that isn't overly distracting. The filter is made with premium water white glass and is crafted to prevent reflections and provide accurate color rendition.

[Glass] I use this filter on every exterior night shot, most interior night shots, and most close-ups. My lenses already have a nice soft focus to them, so combined with this, it really gives that nice cinematic touch. I typically just bounce between three filters for everything I do; a VND, a circular polarizer, or this 1/8 Black Mist (All are Vaxis via a Tilta Matte Box). If I had lenses with a sharper focus, I might have jumped to the 1/2, but for my setup, the 1/8 hits to spot without overdoing it. 5

[0.195 lb] I was hesitant to invest in propriety filters for my Tilta Mirage matte box, but the low price, light weight and performance make them a good value. I just hope Vaxis continues to offer them, as filters can break or get scratched. The 1/8 filter is very subtle, which may be exactly what you want. It blooms highlights and practical lights in the shot, but doesn't seem to do much for skin tones. I need to shoot more with this one, but I will purchase a 1/4 mist for stronger effect. I will also invest in a set of the Vaxis IRND filters, as the Mirage's VND filter has a bit of a yellow/green cast. The cast isn't hard to dial out with a custom white balance on set or color work in post, but reviews of the IRND filters indicate they have much less cast to deal with. The Tilta Mirage is a nice system, and unless someone else produces circular filters for it, the Vaxis filters are the only option. Thankfully, it's a good one. 5

[Glass] I really like the pure mist. I have the 1/8 and it's probably the one that just lives on the mattebox. Just enough to soften the contrast and smooth the image but not enough to make a statement. When you want more of that effect step up to the 1/4. I think the 1/2 is just to strong for most use cases. 5

[Glass] It's a must to buy. It helps me a lot to diffuse the light and have softer skin 5

[0.195 lb] This filter does a nice job softening the digital edges in a very subtle way (might be too subtle for some, but great for news/doc to not overdramatize the look.) Fits great with Tilta Mirage, eager to compare to Tilta's new Illusion line. 5
