Hoya Sq100 Clear Mist 1/4: An Ideal Effect Filter for Cinematic Vibrance

The Hoya Sq100 Clear Mist 1/4 serves as an impressive effect filter capable of scattering light while preserving the color balance and contrast authentically. It imparts a cinematic appeal to photos and videos by creating a soft, dreamy, and tranquil ambiance.

Filmic Appearance and Photo-Quality

Imagine creating a perfect scene that captures a dreamy, peaceful, or calming atmosphere. This is exactly what the Hoya Sq100 Clear Mist allows you to do. The filter gently scatters light around light sources, reducing overall sharpness and yielding a artistic cinematic appeal. Unlike Black Mist filters, the Clear Mist filter does not alter contrast and thus does not produce vintage effects.

In portraiture, the Clear Mist filter wonderfully smoothens the skin texture of the model due to its scattering effect, making the subject appear more attractive or friendly.

Selecting Optimal Density

• The Sq100 Clear Mist filter comes in two densities, 1/4 and 1/8, with each producing a different softening effect. The 1/4 density filter gives a stronger softening effect, generally preferred for low-light situations, night landscapes with distant light sources, or settings with less backlight, where the 1/8 filter might be too subtle.
• On the other hand, the 1/8 density filter is the better choice in cases of strong light sources near the camera or strong backlight, where the 1/4 might create an overly strong effect.
