Review: Worth Every Penny - Having had the Tiffen82mm Glimmer Glass 1 Filter in my kit for a few weeks now, I'm kicking myself for not getting it sooner. This isn't just a filter - it's like adding a secret sauce to your photography. It doesn't give a "filtered" look, but subtly enhances images by softening sharp details and adding a nice glow. It's surprisingly versatile, from portrait sessions that leave clients marveling at their skin to capturing landscapes with a touch of dreaminess. It's also stood up to real-world use quite well. It's already been through a couple of accidental drops and hectic outdoor shoots, but it's holding up like a champ. And, for those wondering, the build quality is typical Tiffen - sturdy and reliable. Bottom line, the Tiffen82mm Glimmer Glass 1 Filter is a fantastic investment for any photographer or videographer looking to add a touch of magic to their work. Highly recommended!
Review: Incredible Filter! Lives on my camera, and it's better than Black Pro Mist for my taste. - I absolutely love this filter! It stays on my Fuji X100VI 100% of the time. It's very subtle and not at all distracting when shooting portraits of people, and provides a beautiful soft diffusion on any light source. Especially perfect for shots at night for any lit-up signs, streetlights, etc. Super happy with the purchase! For what it's worth: I've also used Tiffen's Black Pro Mist filter (their 1/8 is the closest equivalent to this product), and while I like the BPM, I definitely prefer this Glimmerglass over the BPM because the Glimmerglass produces even better overall results for my liking. Go for it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A solid alternative to Black Mist - but do your research and decide for yourself
*by H***3 on April 14, 2025*

I absolutely love using this filter on my Fuji X100VI! When paired with Reggie's Portra film, it transforms even the simplest shots into something truly wistful and beautiful. What I really appreciate is that, as a filter, it provides not only dust and lens protection but also that lovely, subtle halo effect around light sources, which is a bit more refined than what you get with the Black Mist filters. If you want to see the differences for yourself, I highly recommend checking out various portraiture demonstrations on YouTube! Personally, I prefer this filter to the Black Mist - it just has that special touch. Now, I won’t lie, Tiffen filters come with a price tag! But let me tell you, the value is undeniable. You’re getting an original design that boasts an all-metal build. Sure, there may be cheaper alternatives out there, but nothing quite compares to the quality of this filter!
