The Tiffen 4 x 5.65" Gold Diffusion/FX 2 Filter is designed to disperse strong light that enters the lens, resulting in a captivating glowing effect. This softens the image's appearance, creating an ethereal quality while preserving the overall clarity and fine details. The filter achieves this by diffusing incoming light with subtle imperfections, leading to a uniformly diffused illumination that contrasts the well-defined images captured without a filter. In addition to its diffusion properties, the filter adds a warm gold tint to the image, enhancing warmth and harmonizing skin tones. With a density of 2, it offers more softening than the 1 density option, while falling short of the softening provided by the 3 density filter.

Tiffen's commitment to quality shines through their application of ColorCore technology. This intricate manufacturing process involves bonding the filter substrate between two layers of precision optical glass and grinding it with exceptional precision of 1/10,000th of an inch. Measuring 4 x 5.65" / 101.6 x 143.5mm, this filter opens up creative possibilities by blending diffusion and warmth for visually captivating results.

• Diffuser filter provides an ethereal quality to photographs, resulting in a dream-like atmosphere.
• Soft image quality does not detract from the overall detail of the image.
• Light entering the lens is diffused by small aberrations, creating a soft glow rather than the sharp, well-defined image when shooting without a filter.
• Gold tint provides additional warmth and helps to balance skin tones.
