Combining three distinct effects within a single filter, the Tiffen 4x4" IRND 1.2 Glimmerglass 1/2 Filterfrom Tiffen 4x4" IRND 1.2 Glimmerglass 1/2 Filteroffers a 4 stop exposure reduction, attenuates infrared wavelengths, and slightly softens skin details while adding a glowing quality to highlights. Intended for use with high definition video capture with CMOS and CCD sensors, this filter compensates for the extended red sensitivity of these sensor designs in order to produce cleaner, more accurate colors and also takes the over-sharpened "digital edge" off for a smoother image quality. The filter is constructed from water white optical glass for maintained clarity and measures 4 x 4" / 101.6 x 101.6mm to pair well with lightweight or clip-on matte boxes.

Alleviating the need to use multiple filters at once, this filter combines three distinct effects to reduce the number of filter surfaces in use.

IRND 1.2 filter offers a 4 stop exposure reduction to permit working with longer shutter speeds or wider aperture settings than normally required.

Infrared attenuating design is proportionate to the neutral density value, and helps to ensure clean, accurate colors and true blacks.

Glimmerglass effect produces glowing highlights; helps to soften skin details, blemishes, and wrinkles; and offers a slight reduction in contrast for a more ethereal image appearance

When viewed from the subject's perspective, the filter appears to be sparkling and helps to instill confidence in models, resulting in a potentially better performance.

No. 1/2 diffusion strength provides the least amount of softening, which is less than the 1 strength.

Constructed from water white optical glass for maintained image quality.

Measures 4 x 4" / 101.6 x 101.6mm and is ideally suited for use with lightweight clip-on matte boxes.

Q: 1. what is the difference between this lens and the cheaper 50 mm that is 300$ and the cheapest one that is 50mm 100$????

A: This all depends on your shooting style. The great thing about 50mm lens is that the lens sees what you see. All the focusing comes from you manually moving in or backwards with your legs opposed to a zoom lens. Also, I would say the 50mm 1.8 is sharp, 50mm 1.4 sharper and 50mm 1.2 sharpest. If price difference is an issue for you then I would go with at least the 50mm 1.4. It's sharper and focuses faster than the 50mm 1.2. From my experience using all 3 I can honestly say I usually pull out my 1.4 more than I do the 1.2. Only because if I bang it up it won't be much of a big deal to me. But like to use the 1.2 for my glamour shoots. Last, take a look at Canon's 24mm 2.8 and 40mm 2.8 Pancake Lenses. Those two lenses do great for shooting slightly wide and are sharp. If you need to see all 3 lenses in action, there's lots of youtube videos you can see that will help you make the best decision for your shooting style. All the best Tommy
