PolarPro Helix Mist Filter Summary
The PolarPro Helix Mist Filter is made exclusively for the Helix MagLock Filter System and provides an atmospheric illumination of everyday light when shooting movies. The standard version of the mist filter offers near 1/4 diffusion to eliminate the harsh, over-sharp look of today's digital sensors, whereas the alternative PolarPro Helix Mist Heavy Filter offers near 1/2 diffusion.
The filter harnesses a completely secure magnetic connection using PolarPro's magnetic + quarter-turn locking mechanism, making it lightning-fast to install/remove the filter, while also ensuring it stays locked in position during even the most demanding run-and-gun situations.
Helix MagLock™ makes it possible to switch between Helix filters faster than your can change lenses, seamlessly integrating into your workflow, simply choose between special effects like this, regular VND filters and dual filters.
