Star Mist Cilp Filter for Nikon APS-C Cheap
Description
The dual-purpose filter for astrophotography and portrait photography – the STC Star Mist filter, officially debuts in 2024!
In the era of digital photography, even when the night sky is filled with sparkling stars, digital cameras often capture them too sharply, making them less noticeable compared to the naked eye. Therefore, STC has developed a filter that incorporates sub-micron transparent microcrystals used in liquid crystal processes to create a specialized mist effect. This enhances highlights (making bright stars more prominent) and enlarges the halo effect, without excessively impacting the landscape or degrading image quality. This allows the stars to be more pronounced and the bright stars to appear larger and brighter, presenting a more beautiful starry sky.
Through testing, this characteristic also proves to be well-suited for portrait photography. Unlike Cine Mist (black soft) filters, the Star Mist filter provides a bright tone, softening overly sharp lines and reducing excessive contrast. When light is properly diffused, it can also enhance the halo effect, adding an airy ambiance, making it an excellent choice for the new generation of portrait photography filters!
