NEEWER 1/4 ブラック拡散 角型フィルター

This Neewer 1/4 black diffusion does exactly what I was expecting it to. It comes in a well constructed pouch and fits in with my other standard sized 4x5.65 pouches.In my testing, it was quite easy to see the effect in the shadows, with raised blacks, which lowers the contrast. This makes the image a little less punchy, but often that is a look I want. As you can see in my tree image, strong backlights cause lots of halation. When shooting against a bright background with less direct light (see flower pictures), the halation is much less pronounced. This filter also smooths out a little bit of sharpness, helping to give modern digital sensors a more "organic" look.I usually tend to prefer diffusion of this type in the 1/8 strength, as it's slightly less strong while still adding just a touch of softness and halation to the image. In the 1/4 strength tested here, I need to be a bit more careful about strong light sources washing things out a bit too much (unless that's the specific look I'm going for). I don't bring that up as a problem with this product, but more as my personal preference. This filter is doing exactly what it should and seems to be made of high quality glass, but at a much more affordable price than some of the competing black diffusions out there. It's an excellent product and certainly has its use cases that I look forward to exploring more.
