In landscape photography, this filter creates an awe-inspiring atmosphere by diffusing sunlight, especially when sunlight filters through a tree crown. It also softens the contrast between highlights and shadows in backlit scenes, softly blurring the light around the object to create a mood characteristic of black mist.

The Mist Diffuser Black No. 1 stands out from other soft filters by not whitening the image and offering a greater light diffusing effect in strong backlighting or night scenes. It's also a great choice for nightlife street photography, where it can create a more pronounced effect with light sources far away. In low light situations or forward-lit scenes, the No. 1 filter is recommended for a more visible effect.

Remember, the soft effect is stronger when the focal length of the lens is on the telephoto side and weaker at the wide-angle side. The effect may vary depending on the type of light source and other shooting conditions like shutter speed. The final result will also change depending on the exposure compensation, so it is recommended to use exposure compensation if necessary. With the 58mm Mist Diffuser Black No. 1 Glass Filter, you'll have the tool you need to create stunning, professional-quality images and videos.
