PolarPro Helix MagLock Everyday 1/4 Mist/PL Filter - Shortstache Edition

Step into a new realm of photography with the PolarPro Helix MagLock Everyday 1/4 Mist/PL Filter - Shortstache Edition. Crafted in collaboration with renowned photographer Garrett King, aka Shortstache, this filter combines the best of both worlds: a Circular Polarizer for crisp, clean images and a Black Mist filter for that subtle, dreamy bloom effect in the highlights. This unique combination ensures your photos maintain depth and character, perfect for any shooting scenario. The sleek matte green aluminum frame, a favorite of Shortstache, not only enhances your camera's aesthetics but also reflects his distinctive style.

The Perfect Everyday Filter

Designed for versatility, the Everyday 1/4 Mist/PL Filter is your go-to accessory for capturing stunning visuals. The polarizer reduces reflections, delivering sharp and vibrant images, while the 1/4 mist diffusion adds a touch of filmic nostalgia by softening highlights and enhancing shadows. This filter is engineered with a 16-layer coating that resists scratches, reflections, and fingerprints, ensuring durability and clarity in every shot. Whether you're out for a quick shoot or a detailed photo session, this filter stays on your lens, ready to elevate your photography.

Two Distinct Diffusion Strengths

Choose the diffusion strength that suits your creative vision. The Everyday 1/4 Strength offers subtle halation and blooming, perfect for adding depth and dimension without overpowering the image. For a more pronounced vintage look, the Mist + PL 1/2 Strength delivers a stronger effect, blooming light sources and giving your photos a cinematic feel. Both options provide zero color shift and exceptional clarity, thanks to the all-new Chroma Polarizer Glass, making it an essential tool for photographers and videographers alike.

From Film to Commercial Shoots

Whether you're capturing the timeless feel of film photography or the precision of commercial video, the PolarPro 49mm Everyday 1/4 Mist/PL Filter adapts to your needs. The combination of polarizer and black mist effects creates a versatile filter that reduces reflections and softens highlights, perfect for any shooting style. Its ultra-slim profile ensures no vignetting, allowing you to capture the perfect shot every time.

Faster filter swaps and less weight in your bag mean more creative freedom with fewer distractions, letting you focus on what matters most—capturing the perfect shot.

Durability and Protection
