The 62mm Tiffen Black Pro-Mist Filter 62mm Grade 1/8helps 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 1/8 density provides less contrast and highlight reduction than the 1/4, while still allowing for a soft, pastel-like quality of light.

Q: 3. From the picture shown it is hard to make out if this is multi coated ... a) Is this multi-coated?b) Is a multi coated circular polarizer necessary if stacked on a multicoated UV filter?

A: a) No, it is not a multi-coated filter. Tiffen does make a Digital HT line that is multi-coated.b) Yes and no. Multi-coated filters benefit from water repellency, scratch resistance, and reduction of solar flair. If the non-multi coated filter is on top of a multi-coated filter, then the top lens will be be susceptible to water smear and scratches, but the stack-up will benefit from solar flair reduction. I would install the UV multi-coated filter over the top of the circular polarizing filter.I hope this helped. I also encourage you to continue your research to ensure best possible information.

Q: 6. I notice this filter is not multi coated. I would be using this on the water. Does multi coating make a difference?

A: The multi-coatings on filters allow the filter to reduce glare or flare that would happen internally in the camera mainly between the filter and the sensor. Glare on the water would be caused by unpolarized light outside of the camera from the sun. As such, while I do recommend multi-coated filters, for shoots on water, glass, or foliage, a standard polarized filter would still work for your needs.
