Tiffen 82mm Black Satin 1/4 Filter

Achieve a Cinematic Aesthetic with the Tiffen Black Satin Filter

The Tiffen 82mm Black Satin 1/4 Filter is designed to provide filmmakers and photographers with greater control over image contrast and highlight management. By subtly reducing overall contrast, this filter produces a refined, natural appearance that bridges the gap between digital sharpness and classic film texture.

Refined Skin Tones and Highlight Control

This 1/4 density filter is particularly effective at softening facial blemishes and wrinkles without sacrificing image clarity. It renders highlights with a grittier, more organic grain, making it an essential tool for portraiture and narrative cinematography. Unlike standard diffusion filters, the Black Satin series maintains a clear focus while adding a sophisticated filmic glow to the brightest parts of your scene.

Premium Optical Construction

Crafted from high-quality Water White glass, each filter is manufactured using Tiffen's proprietary ColorCore technology. This process involves laminating the filter substrate between two pieces of optical glass and grinding it to a precise tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. The result is exceptional optical clarity and durability, mounted in a precision metal ring for a secure fit on any 82mm lens.
