Tiffen Portrait/Diffusion FiltersPlease note that currently not all filter types and sizes are available ex stock in Australia. Filters are flown into Australia approximately every 4 weeks.
Many Tiffen effect filters are available in a number of grades - the higher the number the more pronounced the effect. Black & Gold Diffusion/FX Filters
Many techniques have been developed for diffusing or softening images, whether to create a mood in a landscape or portrait or simply as an aid to make people look glamorous. These filters produce silky-smooth textures, even in tight close-ups without sacrificing image clarity. They offer the most advanced diffuser ever developed by Tiffen. Each creates a diffused image that doesn't look like it's been shot through a filter.
Black Diffusion/FX - Does spectacular job of suppressing facial blemishes and wrinkles

Soft/FX
The Soft/FX series has a pattern of tiny lenslets designed specifically to put fine image elements, like wrinkles and skin blemishes, out of focus while leaving larger details such as the eyes, sharp.

The higher densities work harder to minimize facial imperfections and provide a more pleasing portrait. - Ideal portrait filter

Glimmerglass The Glimmerglass is the first series of filters with a psychological edge. Tiffen has developed the Glimmerglass series of filters for making people look their best. A new type of diffusion filter, the Glimmerglass subtly softens fine details in a unique manner, while adding a mild glow to highlights. As contrast is also reduced, the look is one of enhanced beauty. A first in this field is the fact that the filter is both effective to look at as well as to look through. The filter has a distinct silver sparkle that has been found to be doubly useful. When production starts and people see the glittering on the front of the lens, they become more confident in the knowledge that the filter is working for them and they may also turn in a better performance. - Softens details in a unique manner, while adding a mild glow to highlight
- Glass has a distinct silver "sparkle"
- Reduced contrast produces look of enhanced beauty
- Effect of lighter grades more subtle with higher grades becoming gradually more noticeable
