Tiffen Black Pro-Mist 1/2 Rear Mount Filter for Arri Signature

Cinematic Diffusion for ARRI Signature Lenses

Developed in close collaboration with ARRI, the Tiffen Black Pro-Mist 1/2 Rear Mount Filter brings legendary diffusion to the Signature Prime and Zoom lens series. This specialized filter utilizes a magnetic attachment system to provide filmmakers with a streamlined workflow and the iconic "Pro-Mist" look that has defined modern cinematography.

Instant, Tool-Free Installation

The innovative magnetic rear-mount system eliminates the need for complex lens modifications or specialized technicians. Each filter features an integral ring of 12 high-power magnets that align perfectly with the Magnetic Rear Filter Holder on ARRI Signature lenses. This allows for rapid interchangeability on set, providing more creative flexibility while significantly reducing the weight and bulk associated with traditional front-mounted matte boxes.

Uniform Strength Across Focal Lengths

One of the primary advantages of the rear-mount system is the consistency of the diffusion effect. Unlike front-of-lens filters, where the grade often needs to be adjusted based on the focal length, a rear-mounted filter maintains the same strength whether you are shooting wide or tight. A 1/2 grade remains consistent throughout your entire lens set, simplifying your setup and ensuring visual continuity across every shot.

The Black Pro-Mist Advantage

The Black Pro-Mist filter is renowned for its ability to control highlight flares and create a soft, pastel-like quality of light. By incorporating a 1/2 strength grade, cinematographers can achieve:

• Reduced contrast and softened skin tones.
• Delicate halation around light sources.
• A natural, organic look that takes the "digital edge" off modern sensors.
• Consistent performance without sacrificing image sharpness.
