      Do not spray directly onto the UV filter. Here are my personal steps.
      Step One:
      Spray the hair spray up into the air. Do NOT spray directly onto UV filter.
      Step Two:
      Grab UV filter, now wave back and forth into the air that is saturated with hair spray.
      I usually do this twice to get a good diffusion level.

      @@robvision3888 oh i just redid my filter but with 2 feet distance from the filter but without waving it just a direct mist at it.
      I prefer this one compared to the result from waving in the spray.
      for me the dots on the filter are smaller and as a result effect is less overwhelming.
      I might try to mix both methods - do a base spray of 6 direct sprays and 2 wave ones in the air.
      I am guessing the wave method coats the back and front of the glass which makes it super pronounced?

    What people say film look is just basically improperly digitised films back in the day. If you bring your well exposed film into the dark room and use proper processing and printing then you’ll be able to achieve high performance digital camera look (maybe even better). What the camera brands nowadays doing is just exploiting the hyped market and you wouldn’t even imagine how it will look on the prints.

    • @BenGleasonMedia
      @BenGleasonMedia  Před rokem +34

      This comment comes up a lot, and ultimately, I have 2 reasons. 1 is because of the option to remove the filter if I don’t want that soft effect. When I’m going to a shoot I will typically have a look in mind, and for some shoots it may require the sharpness of a $2000 lens and for others I may want that same focal length but a softer look.
      2, the filter is $125 USD, which is still a little pricey and I get that. But, after shooting video for 10 years, you start to experiment with your footage. Getting different effects to change things up or try something new keeps things fresh. While also shooting the sharp “boring” stuff to keep money in the bank.
      Ultimately you don’t have to use filters at all, and for photography it can be way easier to just do the effect in post. For video that may be a different story, which is what I mostly do, and why I tend to have a few of these filters in my bag to mix things up if I need to.

    I've fallen in love with the Tiffen Black Mist filter set - they use a different method than the sparkle coating to promote halation, which makes it a lot more subtle even at high density. They also come in different strengths, which lets you keep the look and contrast effect even when you need to tone down the strength of the halation when you have something like a neon light in frame.
