Ethereal ¼ 白色薄霧濾鏡 Plus

I shoot a lot of backlit street scenes and this filter keeps the highlights from blowing out while adding this soft, warm haze. It's subtle enough at 1/4 strength that skin tones still look natural. Honestly it saved me a ton of editing time.

The diffusion on this filter is just right for portraits—skintones keep their texture while highlights get that soft, warm roll-off I wanted. Took off a star only because it's a bit more subtle than I expected indoors, but outside it really shines.

I picked this up for shooting portraits outdoors, and the way it tames harsh midday sun without killing sharpness is genuinely nice. Only gripe is that the effect can look a bit heavy wide open, so I usually stop down a touch.
