PolarPro - Shortstache - Everyday - 1/4 Strength Black Mist - 67mm - Camera filter - In collaboration with Garett King

I’m always dubious about filters, believing that most effects can be added in post with the original image available to edit in different ways if required. This filter goes against that for me! Just used it on a 5 day trip to Istanbul and seeing the colour and effects from this filter on the image in real time means I’ve edited less than 20% of my images any further than cropping from the trip. I’ve noticed no movement or slipping of the filter even though I’m turning it regularly. While it is really expensive for a little piece of glass I have no regrets spending the money for the images it’s giving me. For those interested I’m using it on a Fuji X100vi mounted on the Haoge filter ring adapter and the original lens cap goes securely over them as a pair without ever coming off.

Bought for my Fuji X100VI together with the Haoge filter adapter. Very well made product with the green knurled outer ring to adjust the circular polariser. Polarising effect is quite subtle. The mist effect is quite strong for highlights (as expected) and subtle for evenly lit scenes. It's expensive but as you essentially get two filters in one, I think it's actually good value. Also comes in a nice sturdy case if you were to ever need to remove from your camera (which I doubt I will). Would recommend. Added a photo taken with the filter that is SOOC to show the bloom effect.

Great everyday filter, black mist superb for those soft highlights. Fits well with standard threading. Polariser is easy to use and control. The filter doesn’t cut any light and has good brightness. Not the cheapest but great quality and should last well when used in the field.

I really like this filter. It’s a combination circular polariser and 1/4 strength black mist, which are 2 filters I use consistently in my photography, and often in my video work too. Having them both in one filter is ideal, and this version has excellent optical clarity and build quality. My first copy took a regrettable fall and got scratched, but I like it so much I had to immediately order another one! Highly recommended.

Great filter!! Normally I use just a cpl, but this just adds that suttle mist as well, which helps just take the edge off of the highlights and helps with the shadows. It stays on my camera 90% of the time now. It's easy to use as it's just rotating,

Tried out the PolarPro x Shortstache 1/4 filter with a few test shots at home and I’m really impressed. It gives a subtle cinematic glow without overdoing it, keeps the image sharp, and adds a nice polish straight out of camera. Excited to see how it performs on real shoots.

I now have both the Shortstache filters offering black mist effect & polarising effect.... A quality product and delivers great results - Thank you

I’m using this on a GFX100S, with 102MP sensor. The build quality is excellent, but the bloom effect is a little weaker than I desire, and create off effects around light sources. Having a very in focus sharp light source with a bloom effect around it can look odd sometimes. The slight blur/softness of the image is going to be a deal breaker for some people, but this is really person preference. I find the filter works best on overcast days or in more null looking environments. It can make things look a little more interesting with a Blade Runner/Cyber Punk feel, instead of boring.

Hallo , gekauft für meine Fuji X100VI , um spontan auch Autos zu fotografieren und damit die Reflektionen zu reduzieren. Die Original Fujifilm Sonnenblende , passt immer noch über den Filter, wenn Ihr im Alltag nur den Mist Filter verwenden wollt. Gute Verarbeitung , die Mist Stärke ist vergleichbar wie die vom Tiffen Black Pro Mist 1/2 , da ich diesen davor drauf hatte.

El filtro PolarPro Everyday está de chingon: fácil de poner, mejora colores y quita reflejos sin afectar la foto. Se siente resistente y confiable, vale la pena la inversión.

Great filter, it is as all the creators state. Mine lives in the camera.

Here we go again.... I just don't get what happened to PolarPro.... everything I bought from them was bad in some way. This time it is fitment! It does not fit Leica D-Lux 8 both with main lens ring nor with auto lens cover. edges were full of oil or something that took me at least 15min to clan up. Results were not worth this price, it is at best 10€ product to have it as some kind of lens protection and polarisation if you are willing to stop using any kind of lens rings...
