Hoya Sq100 Black Mist 1/8 Filter: A Blend of Versatility and Aesthetics

The Hoya Sq100 Black Mist 1/8 filter is a versatile special effects filter designed to create a distinctive cinematic style by diffusing light and reducing overall contrast. This effect gives images a timeless, classic aesthetic with a hint of vintage appeal, ideal for both photography and videography. The Sq100 Black Mist filter comes in two density options — 1/4 and 1/8 — allowing artists to choose the intensity that best fits their individual requirements.

The Hoya Sq100 Black Mist filter serves as a creative instrument by dispersing light around light sources softly and delicately. By lowering the overall contrast, it decreases the image sharpness, giving it a classic and timeless look - resembling the style associated with cinema. It proves particularly effective in landscape photography, where it disperses sunlight, making it well-suited for scenes like sunsets or sunbeam filtered through the tree canopy.

An intriguing benefit of the Hoya Sq100 Black Mist filter is its performance in portrait photography. By diffusing the light, it softens the texture of the skin and lowers overall contrast. This effect gives portrait subjects a stylish appearance, delivering a sophisticated photo output.

  • Opt for Optimal Density: 1/4 or 1/8

With options of 1/4 and 1/8, you can choose the strength of the effect based on your lighting conditions. The 1/4 density offers a stronger softening effect. In scenarios with intense light sources close to the camera or abundant backlighting, the 1/8 density is often more suitable to prevent an overpowering effect. However, in low light configurations, such as a night landscape or settings with minimal backlighting, the subtlety of the 1/8 might be lacking, making the 1/4 density a better choice for a clearly visible effect.
