KENKO Black Mist Lens with a Soft Softening Water and Oil and a Product Protector, 49mm, Effect, Multi-coating, Repellency, Movie-like Appearance.

[Softening effect + protection, so you can always look like you're in a movie.] A "constant-on" effect filter that combines a subtle softening effect with the functionality of a protective filter. [Gentle softening effect with 1/4 the effect of Black Mist No. 1] This effect gently reduces contrast in photos and videos. With 1/4 the effect of Black Mist No. 1 and 1/2 the effect of Black Mist No. 05, it can be used in any situation. [Multi-coating and water- and oil-repellent coating for improved performance as a lens protector] The lens has been newly given multi-coating and water- and oil-repellent coating, which are necessary for a lens protector, so it also performs excellently as a protective filter. What is a Black Mist filter? This filter is made of extremely fine black diffusing material sandwiched between optical glass. It reduces the contrast between highlights and shadows, dramatically diffusing light in night scenes and other scenes, creating an exquisite nuance reminiscent of a movie scene. The appeal of Black Mist is that it allows you to achieve a cinematic texture without retouching. [Logo design that matches the lens] The elegant logo design of the "BLACK MIST PROTECTOR" is based on the "TRAJAN" font, which has been widely used in movie titles from around 1990 to the present, and will make you feel even more attached to your lenses and other equipment.
