Cine Mist Filter delicately handles highlights, providing a natural and subtle softness without excessive effects. It gently brightens the shadow areas, maintaining contrast, and effectively mitigates the overly sharp and harsh feeling introduced by high-resolution digital devices. The result is a naturally soft and clear image, maintaining clarity without blurring, while adding a subtle cinematic quality.
STC filters are built upon our durable Ultra Layer® coating technology. STC Optics is focused on producing the tools so creators can focus on telling their stories in the most difficult shooting environments with zero vignetting menwhile protecting your camera sensor.

All our filters use STC’s exclusive nanocoating technology for the best optical quality. Our Sensor Protector, Star Mist, Cine Mist, Neutral Density (ND),and Astro (light pollution) series filters all carry a double-sided hydrophobic, anti-smudge and antistatic nanocoating to enhance or block transmission in all kinds of particular spectrums.

STC CineMist Filter applies special etching on the surface of the lens, causing the light to undergo subtle changes to soften the image without sacrificing detail and contrast. It is commonly used in the Hollywood film industry, to soften landscape and still life pictures, creating a vintage lens-like atmosphere.
Mainly used in portrait photo or video to express dreamy beauty, psychedelic rock, or nostalgic storytelling atmospheres. It also optimizes the texture for scenes such as Vlog interviews, personal videos, and commercial livestreams. Using Cine Mist Filter offers a "what you see is what you get" effect, directly physically optimizing the image and reducing skin flaws and defects in the early stages so less post-production will be needed. It keeps clarity in the eyes, hair, and expressions, while slightly diffusing bright reflections in areas like bright backlighting, neon LED lights from street lamps, and other highlights. This subtle softening effect gives the overall image a sensual charm. It also softens the sharp flash light.

The new tension-fit design requires no adhesive base, allowing fast and convenient filter installation and removal.
STC’s world-first patented Clip filter now features a bonded lens structure, minimizing overall thickness and weight—so even carrying multiple filters takes virtually no space.
To install, place the camera with the sensor facing upward. Use your index finger to gently support the STC Clip filter from above, guiding it downward along the chamber rails, then lightly press it inward until it clicks into place. Tilt the camera toward your palm to ensure the filter is secure before shooting.
No modifications or settings are required—use your camera just as you normally would.
Sony APS-C V.2 Clip filter never touches the sensor and also serves as a protective barrier. When changing lenses in dusty or sandy environments, it helps prevent debris from striking the sensor and reduces the risk of scratching during sensor cleaning.

The usage scenarios are not limited to portrait creation. When used in landscapes and in environments with direct light, Cine Mist filter can be brought into play. Especially when using under diffusing light and overflow lights, it can bring richer light to the picture. It also reduces excessive digital sharpness of ultra-high resolution camera or lenses without losing detail.

Under the same ambient light, with fixed exposure settings,photograph using STC CineMist filters of varying softness.
This four photos allow for comparing and discerning changes in direct light, reflected light, and diffused light within the scene.

There is only one direct light source change in the environment, the photo exposure setting is also fixed.
When shooting with the STC CineMist filter of the same softness, changes in light will also directly affect the degree of light expansion and softening.
Therefore, choosing the softness of the STC CineMist filter must actually be based on the overall light source and state of the light!
