Description
The Tiffen 77mm Black Pro-Mist 1/4 is a diffusion filter that softens highlights, gently reduces contrast, and adds a subtle cinematic quality to digital images — the look associated with film photography without actually shooting film. The 1/4 strength is the most popular: effective without being heavy-handed.

Rental Tips
Confirm your lens filter thread diameter matches this filter. The thread size is stamped on the front of your lens or printed on the lens cap — measure once to avoid a wasted trip.
Adding filters on top of each other can cause dark corners (vignetting), especially on wide-angle lenses. Keep your stack to one or two filters and check corners at your widest focal length.
Use the included microfiber cloth or a lens cleaning tissue. Paper towels, shirt fabric, and compressed air with propellant can all scratch or leave residue on filter coatings.
Filters are fragile and pick up fingerprints easily. Slip it back into the padded case between setups — a clean filter saves you retouching time in post.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What thread size do I need?
This filter fits the thread diameter listed in the specifications above. If your lens has a different thread size, a step-up ring adapter lets you use a larger filter on a smaller lens.
Can I use this with a lens hood?
Standard lens hoods may not fit over a filter or filter stack. Some hoods thread onto the filter itself — check compatibility with your specific lens before shoot day.
Will it affect autofocus or metering?
Quality filters have minimal impact on AF and metering. Heavy ND filters may slow autofocus in low light — switch to manual focus if the camera hunts.
