What is a Diffusion Filter?
What is a Diffusion Filter?
A Diffusion Filter creates a glowing effect that is often used by cinematographers & photographers.
The Diffusion Filter is also commonly known as the mist filter. A lot of creatives enjoy using this filter as it creates a cinematic look. The Diffusion Filter helps users escape reality and enter another time zone just by looking at the results.
How does it work?
When the light hits the diffusion filter it spreads out across the etched surface of the filter. Therefore, it creates a haze effect when the user takes their shot using this filter.
Not to get confused with an out-of-focused or blurred shot. The Diffusion Filter preserves the image's sharpness & contrast. It simply creates a glow surrounding bright objects & brightens up the shadows a little bit.

The Diffusion Filter is great for taking photos/videos at night or in lowlight environments.
Sometimes when you’re using your iPhone to shoot footage or take pictures at night, the results can look a little too sharp or too bright.
The Diffusion Filter helps resolve that issue by simply taking the brightest objects within your lens and creating a soft glow around them. It also lifts the shadows of the darkest areas while keeping the contrast and sharpness intact.
