Marumi DHG Soft Fantasy 77mm Filter

Saves time altering the picture post image. I natural soft look is created.

I bought one of these a few years back simply to test out.I was of the view that software made filters like this redundant, but I did a few test shots to compare and I found that the filter did give a better overall effect, though the software was fine it didn't quite have the same impact to my eyes.There are some disadvantages to a soft effect filter, one is that any chromatic aberrations will also turn up in the image, and the glow effect enhances that (the CA will spread out and become softer and larger)..so be sure to try out various lenses to see which ones are better suited to this filter.The DHG means it's a lower profile filter and has multiple coatings to reduce flare, it's the same frame and satin finish as other Marumi DHG filters (and DHG super ones)In field use the filter works well, and it whilst the soft effect is present it does not make your images soft, details are retained well. Contrast levels are reduces somewhat due to the effect of the filter. Looking at the filter you see a sort of "mottled" effect across the surface, this spreads the light out when it hits the glass in a way you can't quite get with software I have tried. It's not a high priority filter for most users (a polariser is quite high up the should have list), but it is worth looking at for portrait shooters. The glow/soft focus effect is moderate not super strong and a bit over the lighter ones I've tried (there are various grades of soft focus filters, this is about medium to my eyes)

La nitidezza complessiva non viene influenzata in modo particolare da questo filtro che tuttavia riduce il contrasto provocando una sorta di diffusione delle alte luci nelle ombre. Alzando il contrasto in post-produzione è possibile graduare l'effetto finale. Il diaframma di utilizzo, a differenza dei filtri duto, non influenza l'effetto che invece dipende molto dall'esposizione e dalle caratteristiche della scena. Lo sfocato ad alto ingrandimento (200% o più) presenta come delle striature e nelle scene notturne i punti di luce subiscono una diffusione a due "punte" secondo una linea la cui direzione dipende dall'orientamento del filtro (che però a differenza del polarizzatore marumiDHG non è ruotabile). Ottima la fattura e superbo il trattamento antiriflesso. Utilizzabile senza immagini fantasma anche con obiettivi non MC d'annata.

購入したばかりなので耐久性はまだ分かりませんが、良いと思います。

レンズ用に購入。高級品と比べると皮脂などの脂分が付くと取れにくいのが不満ですが、価格からすればこれで十分かと。消耗品と考えてますので．．．

デジタル向けだと思います。従来のフィルム用では効果が強く出すぎたため本製品を購入したのが二年くらい前です。それを割ってしまったため買いなおし致しました。安価だし、ちょうど良いソフト加減であるためお勧め致します。

使い慣れないとなかなかうまくいきません。一発勝負のときは偶然うまくいきましたが、外さなくて良かった。。。

このフィルターはソフト効果抜群で、魅力ある作品づくりには必要であると実感しております。特に、ポートレート撮影には欠かせませんね。丁寧な対応をいただき有難うございました。

通常は望遠での撮影が主ですが、このフィルターの滲んではみ出した様なボケ味も趣が有りますね。対象物が、うまくハマると特徴のある光景となる。

とてもおもしろいです。子どもを撮ると、白い部分が淡く光っていいです。

ぼやかした様な絵になります。使いどころは難しいと思いますが、ふいんきを出すにはいいかもしれません。しかし、これは使ってみないと自分のイメージに遭う、遭わないがあると思うのでご注意を。

他社のソフトフィルターは使ったことがないので、比較ではなく感じた事を書きます。52mmはニコンD40のキットレンズ（18-55mm）に付けています。キットレンズとの相性はとてもいいと感じました。特に新緑を撮ったときの木漏れ日の描写が好きです。行き慣れた公園で撮った子どもの写真を見た妻が、この公園は何処で撮ったの？と聞いて来ました。72mmはシグマ17-70mmのレンズに付けるために買いましたが、このレンズに付けた写真よりキットレンズに付けた写真の方が僕の好みに合っているようです。

Well made, have only used once, but has a nice look!
