    ‪@kfconcept‬ recently sent me a Nano-X 1/4 Black Pro Mist filter to test out, and I often hear people asking "what is a pro mist filter?!" In this video, I touch on what it is, what it does, when it's useful, and my thoughts on the K&F Concept diffusion filter.

    I love the look these filters give. I have to admit tho... ever since I started using Dehancer I would rather do it in post. That way I can control the amount no matter what or even if I just forgot my filter I can add it in later! Nice work on this video bro!

    • @AnthonyToglife
      @AnthonyToglife  Před rokem +3

      I don’t disagree with you at all @510visualz, but the thing stopping me from doing that - my heavy a$$ 5D4 files. Anytime I apply Dehancer and export, I’m not exaggerating when I say it quadruples the export time, at a minimum, and that’s if my video is a pretty basic talking head like this one. Literally the only time my M1 fans really spin up is when I use Dehancer in Premiere. Now, we’ll save that argument for another day. 😉😂

      It’s a look worth having in your toolkit, honestly @ks_portraits. I use it for all my YT vids but I don’t always use it for client work. I like having options and although you can obtain a similar look in post, there’s nothing like getting a look organically in cam.

    • @TheSunnySuttons

      Go for it but if you have multiple lenses with different size threads then choose the biggest one and use step down rings like @AnthonyTogLife does.

    I shoot flash through a double diffused softbox for portraits and I sometimes have issues controlling the high lights so I feel this is a great solution, thanks.

    • @AnthonyToglife
      @AnthonyToglife  Před rokem

      Definitely worth a try @YogaLifeEtc! It will smooth the highlight transitions, but it won’t rid the hotspots. It’ll just smooth them a bit, which could be exactly what you’re looking for.

    • @TheSunnySuttons
      @TheSunnySuttons Před rokem

      @@AnthonyToglife I am currently using a K&F CPL filter to control the hotspots for my portraits which works well but I am wondering if a black mist 1/4 might give better results or could even both together?

    • @AnthonyToglife
      @AnthonyToglife  Před rokem

      @@TheSunnySuttons well, a CPL reduces reflections, a black mist softens the intensity of highlights, so together they could work really well. I would put the CPL on the outside of the stack.

      I can, yes. I've actually been playing around with different lighting as of late just to gain some experience in more cinematic/film lighting, so I definitely can do a video on this particular setup.
