49mm Pro Mist #1 Filter
The Tiffen 49mm Pro Mist #1 is a diffusion filter that attaches to the front of a lens to soften excessive sharpness and contrast. It creates a subtle, misty glow that reduces the appearance of wrinkles and blemishes for a flattering, cinematic look in both photographs and videos. Constructed from high-quality optical glass, it maintains image clarity while minimising light loss. The robust design offers increased scratch resistance for long-term durability.
Photographers and Videographers Seeking Cinematic
This filter suits creatives who want to add a romantic, ethereal atmosphere to portraits, landscapes, or urban scenes directly in-camera. It is ideal for professionals and enthusiasts aiming for a timeless, high-end aesthetic without relying on post-production effects. Shooters who require clinically sharp, high-contrast images straight from the sensor or who prefer to apply diffusion digitally should look at other options.
49mm Thread Mount
The filter features a standard 49mm thread that screws directly onto compatible lens barrels. You must verify that your lens has a 49mm filter diameter, typically marked on the lens barrel or in its specifications, before purchase. If your lens uses a different thread size, this filter will not fit without a separate step-up or step-down adapter ring.

Questions about this item
Does the 49mm Pro Mist #1 filter come with a protective case or do I need to buy one separately?
The filter is supplied as a single 49mm glass element; a storage pouch or hard case is not included and must be purchased separately.
What strength should I choose between Pro Mist #1, #2 and #3 for a subtle cinematic look?
Pro Mist #1 is the lightest density in the range, giving a gentle halation and slight contrast reduction while keeping detail sharp — ideal when you want the effect barely noticeable.
How much light does the 49mm Pro Mist #1 filter actually cut when mounted on a lens?
The filter is designed for minimal light loss, so exposure compensation is typically unnecessary; you can shoot at your normal settings and still retain full image brightness.
