ND2–400 + Ethereal ¼ Zwarte Mist Filter Plus

The diffusion on this filter is subtle but noticeable in highlights, exactly the look I wanted for video without overdoing it. The magnetic quick-swap system made it easy to adjust density between shots without fumbling with threads.

I've been using this for street photography at golden hour and the combination of adjustable stops with the subtle diffusion is exactly what I needed. The black mist effect softens highlights just enough without washing out the whole frame.

Took this to a misty morning shoot and the 1/4 black mist softened the highlights just enough without killing sharpness. Being able to dial the ND from 2 to 400 stops means I stopped swapping filters mid-walk. The diffusion is subtle but you can definitely see it in the skin tones.
