👎 Cons

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the 1/2, 1/4, and 1/8 black mist filters in this kit?
The fraction indicates the strength of the diffusion effect. The 1/8 filter applies the subtlest softening, the 1/4 offers a moderate glow, and the 1/2 delivers the most pronounced cinematic halation and contrast reduction. Having all three lets you choose the right intensity for each shooting scenario.
Can these filters be stacked on top of each other?
While physically possible, stacking black mist filters is generally not recommended because it compounds the diffusion effect unpredictably, can introduce vignetting, and increases the risk of flare. It is better to select the single strength that best matches your creative intent.
Do these NiSi black mist filters affect autofocus or exposure metering?
No. Black mist filters do not reduce light transmission significantly, so your camera's autofocus and metering systems will continue to function normally. The effect is purely on contrast and highlight rendering.
What is the nano coating on these filters for?
NiSi's nano coating repels water, oil, and dust from the filter surface, making the glass easier to clean in the field and reducing ghosting and flare caused by surface reflections.
Does the kit include a carrying case?
Yes. The kit ships with a padded 4-pocket carrying case that holds all three filters plus the included cleaning cloth, keeping everything organized and protected during transport.
