NiSi Black Magic Diffusion filters create a cinematic, film-like character through controlled highlight softening and gentle skin tone smoothing.
Utilising NiSi's advanced hybrid diffusion technology that combines Black Mist elements with precise arrays of nano-lenslets, these filters deliver highlight bloom and skin smoothing without the typical loss of contrast, colour accuracy, or detail. The result? A refined, production-ready image that eliminates the clinical digital look of modern sensors.
Key Features
- Controlled Highlight Bloom: Softens highlights without washing out details, maintaining a polished cinematic glow.
- Flattering Skin Rendering: Gently reduces skin blemishes and imperfections while keeping eyes, hair and textures sharp.
- True-to-Life Colour & Contrast: Maintains accurate colour saturation and natural contrast levels, avoiding the flat, muddy look of traditional diffusion filters.
- Refined Film Character: The subtle halation adds a vintage warmth or cinematic atmosphere, removing digital harshness without overpowering the image.
- Hybrid Nano-Lenslet Technology: Combines precision nano-lenslet arrays with Black Mist elements for balanced diffusion that delivers both character and clarity.
- Premium Nano Coatings: Double-sided low-reflection coating minimises flare and ghosting while providing water, oil and dust resistance.
- Cinema-Grade Construction: Professional optical glass made to industry standards, ensuring consistent, flawless results for photography and filmmaking.
So what's the difference between Black Mist and Black Magic Diffusion filters?
- Black Mist delivers an ethereal, lower-contrast atmosphere with pronounced vintage glow and softer character.
- Black Magic Diffusion renders a cleaner cinematic look that balances highlight and texture diffusion with the original contrast, colour and sharpness. It removes the harsh digital edge without becoming muddy or flat, making it ideal when you need cinematic quality that's ready for final delivery.
