Irix Edge Black Mist 1/2 Filter SR (82mm)

The Irix Edge Black Mist 1/2 Filter SR (82mm) is the strongest of Irix's three Black Mist intensities, built for filmmakers and photographers who want a pronounced, atmospheric haze that softens highlights and skin detail without losing the image's overall sharpness. It diffuses light and reduces contrast while preserving darker tones, creating a subtle halo around light sources that's popular for romantic, cinematic, or nostalgic-feeling shots. Reinforced tempered SR glass and an 18-layer nano coating on each side keep it durable and resistant to water, oil, and scratches in the field.

• Strongest Black Mist effect: The 1/2 intensity is the strongest of Irix's three Black Mist grades (1/2, 1/4, 1/8), for a pronounced diffusion effect.
• Highlight and contrast control: Lowers contrast and overall highlight intensity while preserving the integrity of darker image elements.
• Portrait-friendly diffusion: Reduces the visibility of skin blemishes like wrinkles and discoloration in portrait photography.
• Premium optical construction: High-quality optical glass in an aluminum alloy frame, with 18 anti-reflective nano coating layers on each side.
• Weatherproof coating: A waterproof, oilproof, and dustproof top coating resists stains and fingerprints in any shooting condition.
• SR reinforced glass: Irix's SR (glass tempering) technology adds exceptional resistance to scratches and damage.
