Magnetic Slim White Powder Mist 1/2

Magnetic Slim White Powder Mist 1/2

The White Powder Mist is a magical portal to the nostalgic realm of vintage lenses. It creates ethereal flares that vary with the light's direction and intensity, softening reality's harsh edges indoors or under the open sky.  The ultra-slim, single-frame design does not have a male thread. This feature minimizes the possibility of vignetting.

• The white particles within the glass produce flares and soft gradations, depending on the position and intensity of the light source, similar to shooting with an old lens.
• It creates a cinematic look by enriching shadow gradations while maintaining overall resolution.
• Accentuates bright stars, making it suitable for starry landscape photography, especially when combined with the StarScape filter.
• Mildens the contrast of shadows and softens and diffuses highlights and point light sources. (The 1/2 effect is stronger than 1/4 > 1/8)
• The slim male thread design reduces the possibility of vignetting, especially with wide-angle lenses and when using multiple stacked filters.
• Adopts A6063 aluminum alloy frame that features high strength and excellent corrosion resistance, with a strong permanent magnet.
  
• The water-/oil repellent coating simply sheds water off with the air blower. Nuisances such as sweat, skin crème, lotion, fingerprint, or compounded grease stains will be wiped off.
• 67/77/82mm available. Other sizes are also attachable by sandwiching step rings.
• Attachable to the Marumi Magnetic Slim Lens Cap

Why does a magnetic mount make filters so unique?
What is a distinct advantage of Magnetic Slim except for magnetic attach-/detachment function?

"Filter work can be much more smooth."
That explains quite simply and briefly why Marumi released the Magnetic Slim Series.
Filter work is, on the one hand, pursuing artistic image quality; on the other hand, striving for the precious time to capture the moment.

Marumi's innovative Magnetic Slim Filter Series allows you to;

- catch a shutter moment in quick exchange/attach-/detachment of filters without paying attention to the threads.
- combine a set of Polarizer, ND, Lens Protect, or Effect filters, which makes attachment/detachment much smoother.
- stack multiple filters instantly on top of the Magnetic Slim Lens Adapter, Lens Protect/Adp., or StarScape/Adp., with no vignetting anxiety because of its slim frame structure.
- choose a proper kit according to your requirements: Basic/Advanced/Movie/StarScape Kit.
- keep the all-in-one in an exclusive pouch for the Magnetic Filter Series (optional in purchasing the Kits above)

Marumi provides every photographer with the proper attachment system, depending on the photo shooting opportunities.

The four images below demonstrate a comparative analysis of the diffusion effects produced by White Powder Mist of varying strengths. The filters exhibit a progressive increase in light diffusion intensity, correlating with their numerical designations. Specifically, the diffusion effect intensifies in the following order: 1/2 > 1/4 > 1/8.
