Buy Black Mist Filters | Haida 1/4 & 1/8

Black Mist Filters

Black Mist filters soften harsh highlights and allow them to fade gently. Contrasts become slightly flatter, giving the image a slightly cinematic look. Here you’ll find Black Mist and Mist Haze filters from Haida in 1/4 and 1/8 densities, available as screw-in filters, 100×100 slip-on filters, and in the 4×4 and 4×5.65 video formats for the matte box.

1/4 or 1/8: Which Strength?

The number indicates the strength of the effect; the smaller the denominator, the stronger the effect. So 1/4 produces a noticeable effect, while 1/8 is subtle. This is the most common question about these filters, and the answer depends less on personal taste than on the subject.

1/8: the subtle option

The effect remains unobtrusive and is barely noticeable as a filter effect in the final image. This is usually the right choice for portraits in daylight: the skin appears a touch softer, the contrasts slightly milder, without the image looking washed out. If you’re unsure or want to leave the filter permanently attached, go with 1/8.

1/4: the visible effect

Significantly stronger, and it needs bright light sources in the image to be effective. At night in the city, with streetlights, neon signs, and car headlights, the filter really comes into its own: every light source is given a soft halo. This is the standard choice for video and available light photography. In flat daylight without highlights, however, little happens—except that the contrast suffers.

What the filter does—and what it doesn’t

Black Mist is not a soft-focus filter. A classic soft filter blurs the entire image, whereas Black Mist preserves sharpness and affects only the highlights. This is why eyes and details remain crisp, while the highlights breathe. The “black” in the name ensures that shadows aren’t brightened, unlike a white mist filter, which makes the entire image look more milky.

Important: The effect cannot be cleanly removed afterward. It’s possible to recreate it in post-processing, but it will never be exactly the same because the filter acts directly on the actual light sources. If you’re unsure, take one shot with the filter and one without.

Formats

Available as a screw-in filter for general use, as a 100×100 insert filter for the filter holder, and in 4×4 and 4×5.65-inch video formats for the matte box. A custom-fit version is available for the Fujifilm X100V. Regarding screw-in filter sizes: buy the largest diameter available and adapt it using step-up rings.
