7Artisans BM-49mm 1/8 Black Mist Filter – 49 mm Lens Filter for Soft, Diffused Effects
The 7Artisans BM-49mm 1/8 Black Mist filter is a lightweight optical accessory designed to attach to 49 mm lens threads. It introduces a subtle haze and softens contrast, producing a dreamy, atmospheric look in images without significantly reducing sharpness.
1/8 density delivers a gentle mist effect — enough to add atmosphere while preserving detail and contrast
49 mm filter thread fits a wide range of compact and standard lenses from 7Artisans and other manufacturers
Ultra-lightweight construction at just 57 g adds no noticeable weight to the lens setup
Black Mist coating minimises flare and ghosting compared to standard mist filters
What sets the 7Artisans BM-49mm apart
The 1/8 density strikes a balance between a visible atmospheric effect and maintaining image clarity — heavier densities would flatten contrast too aggressively, while this filter keeps the scene natural and cinematic. The black mist coating is specifically engineered to reduce unwanted light scatter, which is especially useful in backlit or high-contrast shooting situations.
Ideal for...
Portrait and lifestyle photographers who want a soft, filmic quality without post-processing diffusion. Also suited for video work where a consistent, subtle haze adds mood across a sequence. The 49 mm thread size makes it a practical choice for travel and street photography setups where every gram counts.

Clean the filter surface with a microfibre cloth before use to avoid dust spots in the image
