Tiffen 67mm Black Glimmerglass 1 Diffusion Filter

The Tiffen 67mm Black Glimmerglass 1 is a screw-in diffusion filter designed for photographers and filmmakers who want a subtle, cinematic softening effect on digital footage. It uses a density of 1 to gently reduce sharpness and detail resolution while imparting a delicate washed-out look to vibrant hues and lowering contrast through a distinctive white halation effect. The filter is crafted from high-quality water white glass for pure light transmission and accurate colour rendition.

Suited for portrait and cinematic work needing

This filter suits creators who want to soften skin texture, obscure fine imperfections such as blemishes and wrinkles, and achieve a vintage film character without heavy post-processing. It is not intended for shooters who require maximum edge-to-edge sharpness, high contrast retention, or an unaltered clinical look straight from the lens.

ColorCore lamination protects the optical surface

Tiffen's ColorCore technology laminates the filter material between two pieces of optical glass, providing a durable sandwich that resists scratches and damage during regular handling and cleaning. The 67mm screw-in mount ensures a secure fit on compatible lens threads, so the filter stays aligned while you work. No additional software or accessories are bundled with this unit.
