Tiffen 58mm Black Satin 2 Filter

Cinematic Highlight Control and Skin Refinement

The Tiffen 58mm Black Satin 2 Filter is designed for cinematographers and photographers seeking to manage the harshness of modern digital sensors. By reducing overall contrast and controlling highlight flares, this filter provides a grittier, more textured appearance in bright areas while maintaining a natural aesthetic.

Beyond highlight management, the Black Satin 2 excels at subtly softening facial blemishes and wrinkles. This creates a refined, film-like look that avoids the artificial sharpness often found in digital captures. The density 2 rating offers a balanced level of contrast reduction, sitting perfectly between the subtle effect of a 1 and the more pronounced diffusion of a 3.

Premium Optical Construction

Built to professional standards, this filter features:

• Water White Glass: Ensures maximum optical clarity and color fidelity.
• ColorCore Technology: A proprietary Tiffen process where the filter substrate is laminated between two pieces of optical glass and ground to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch.
• Precision Metal Rings: Durable construction for reliable mounting on 58mm lenses.
