[@MichaelYoungKim]

What are some other filters you use for your photos/videos?

just got this filter for my canon eos 700d, love the effect! Yet if i film lights directly and zoom in a little, there are some ugly refelctions. Is this a common problem and i just have to try to avoid them or is my camera the problem?

Could that be why my filter seems to not be working? I shoot slog so i have my sharpness at -7 and i use a 1/4 pro mist and seem to me that the image is to soft! Should I change it back to 0? Great video!

[@MichaelYoungKim]

That might be it!

I just received my Tiffen Glimmer Glass 1 and was wondering if using it with my circular polarizer is a good thing or not ? And if so in what order should I put my filters ? Which one goes first ? Because I noticed the diffusion effect was suppressed a bit with the polarizer so I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or the diffusion effect isn't strong enough on the glimmer glass to be seen. Help me please 🥲

Sadly with all moment and tiffen diffusion filters I get some type of flaring and other than me increasing my aperture I don't know how to deal with it do you have any tips. And it happens just like how it did in your video. Also do you recommend stacking a diffusion filter and a ND filter when needed or just all together avoid situations like that?

What about sharpening in post when our image by accident turn out to be too soft?

[@MichaelYoungKim]

that is also an option but I think my footage was too soft :(

I found focusing wide open to be more difficult... have you found the same?

[@MichaelYoungKim]

It’s probably because the image softens and becomes less contrasty.

This is why I never go over 1/8. It’s the perfect strength
