The Tiffen Warm Pro-Mist 1/4 Filter 3 x 4"helps to reduce the value of the highlights while noticeably 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 1/4 density provides more contrast and highlight reduction than the 1/8, but less than the 1/2, while also allowing for a soft, pastel-like quality of light.

This filter also combines the diffusion effect with an 812 warming filter for providing a general warmth to the image and for improving skin tones. This warming effect also helps to reduce blue sensitivity and for cutting through overly cool tones within the scene.

Tiffen filters are made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass and grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. This filter measures 3 x 4" / 76.2 x 101.6mm.

Q: 1. Hi, Does this kit work on alexa camera ? do anyone know what ll it look like after using at alexa ?Tks

A: These filters will work with an Alexa camera as long as you have a Matte Box or Filter Holder capable of holding 4x5.65 filters which are 4mm thick. You may start to see IR pollution when using the higher densities in this kit, so we recommend that you use Full Spectrum ND filters with an IR filter built in such as the ones listed below:IRND1.2a href= http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/572932-REG/Tiffen_45650IRND12_4x5_65_Neutral_Density_1_2.html target= _blank http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/572932-REG/Tiffen_45650IRND12_4x5_65_Neutral_Density_1_2.html/aIRND.9a href= http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/572944-REG/Tiffen_45650IRND9_4x5_65_Neutral_Density_0_9.html target= _blank http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/572944-REG/Tiffen_45650IRND9_4x5_65_Neutral_Density_0_9.html/aIRND.6a href= http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/572942-REG/Tiffen_45650IRND6_4x5_65_Neutral_Density_0_6.html target= _blank http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/572942-REG/Tiffen_45650IRND6_4x5_65_Neutral_Density_0_6.html/aIRND.3a href= http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/572940-REG/Tiffen_45650IRND3_4x5_65_Neutral_Density_0_3.html target= _blank http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/572940-REG/Tiffen_45650IRND3_4x5_65_Neutral_Density_0_3.html/a

Q: 2. how do I remove it? I thought I screwed it on, but now I cant remove it by unscrewing!

A: It sounds like you may have screwed it in too tightly and the outer ring is probably spinning when you try to unscrew it. Please remember that it will be righty tighty lefty loosey. Try using something like a rubber band to grip the inner ring on the lens side and gently but firmly twist it in a counter clockwise direction as you are facing the filter on the lens.

Q: 3. Is the filter front-threaded to allow lens cap to be placed on it?

A: Yes it is. I had no problems utilizing my lens cap.

Q: 4. Does this have front threads for filter stacking?

A: Yes, the Hoya 82mm Moose Peterson warm circular polarizer has front filter threads for stacking additional filters. Please be aware that due to the thickness of this filter, stacking more filters could potentially lead to vignetting issues with certain lenses (usually wider-angle lenses).

Q: 5. Does this filter rotate to adjust the polarizing effect?

A: Yes it does rotate to adjust the polarizing effect.

Q: 6. Looking for some install info on filter. Is it self adhesive? Thank you!

A: The LEE Filters 809 Zircon Warm Amber 8 Filter (24 x 24" Sheet) is not self-adhesive, but it can be attached using gaffer's tape, wooden clothes pins or a specific gel frame for your light where applicable.

Q: 7. In the digital age is there anything a warm polarizer can do compared to a regular polarizer and warming the image when editing?

A: No not really, you can achieve similar results in post, but it is almost always better to expose the image as intended in the camera compared to in post. It gives a more authentic/natural and cleaner look.

Q: 8. Do they work well with Red cameras?

A: Yes, these can be used with the Red Camera and the work very well with it.

Q: 9. Does this fit a cannon 58mm lens?

A: Yes it will ! filter thread today is universal ! Only differences is bayonet used on some German lenses which the canon is not !!!

Q: 10. What is the difference between the filter numbers: warm amber 2 througth 9?

A: The difference between the LEE Filters 808 Zircon Warm Amber 6 Filter and the LEE Filters 814 Zircon Warm Amber 9 Filter is the density of the filter. You may find useful and precise information in the specs that will state the exact temperature conversion and density with the Mired Shift Value. The Mired Shift Value is the color temperature shift provided by a filter or gel for a given film and light source. Not all LED fixtures are made even, and depending on the intensity of the light power, it may change the color temperature. The science of using a gel for an LED fixture is also different from using a gel for a tungsten or HMI light.
