This kit, designed by NiSi, is a must-have for professionals seeking to create a cinematic atmosphere in their work. The Black Mist filters are expertly crafted to add a dreamlike glow around light sources, while maintaining the clarity and color balance of your images.
The Black Mist filters are renowned for their ability to reduce contrast, bloom, and soften the light from strong sources. This feature is particularly beneficial when shooting in harsh lighting or bright sunlight, as it helps to create a smoother, more natural distribution of light. The filters also work to smooth out blemishes and wrinkles, making them ideal for close-up shots in beauty or fashion photography.
The filters in this kit come in strengths ranging from 1/8 to 1/2 stop, with 1/2 providing the strongest effect. The effect of the filter intensifies with each grade number increase, allowing you to adjust the level of diffusion based on your specific shooting conditions. For beginners to mist filters, a 1/4 strength filter is recommended for still photography, while a 1/8 strength filter is ideal for filming.
NiSi's Black Mist filters are not just for portrait photography. They can be utilized in a variety of scenes, including night photography, landscapes, and still life, to create a cinematic atmosphere. The filters add extra blooming and gradients to the highlights in your scene, transforming any direct light source into a film-like, buttery texture around the highlights.
The Black Mist filters also help to suppress highlights and lift shadows, resulting in a well-balanced contrast. Light sources maintain a strong center with a pleasing glow, adding a sense of mood and atmosphere to your final image.
The Professional Black Mist Kit is an essential tool for any cinematographer or photographer looking to elevate their work. With its ability to reduce skin imperfections, soften harsh shadows, reduce lens flare, and create an even distribution of light, this kit provides a versatile solution for creating stunning visuals.
