GiAi CPL and Black mist filter 2in1 has released
Black mist filter is a world wide popular filter, especially in the world of cinematography and videography. For photographers, black mist filter could help you create special effect too. Mostly CPL filter is always needed to increase the saturation or remove unwanted reflective light from non-metallic surface. Today, GiAi has released the Black mist filter and CPL filter 2in1.
A black mist filter is used to lower the contrast and reduce the highlight, and create a dreamy, hazy effect that "blooms" the lighting. GiAi produces intensity 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and 1. The bigger number, the higher strength of softening.

CPL would remove the reflective light from non-metallic surface. If you stack a black mist filter and a CPL filter, there will be vignetting on your photos. This is unacceptable. I don’t think you allow the vignetting on your precious photos. GiAi integrates the two filters into one, and makes no vignetting even you use wide angle lenses.
The effect of removing the reflection couldn’t be got by Photoshop. If you had taken a photo with much reflection, you couldn’t get the detail by post-processing. Besides, the CPL filter could increase the saturation too. You may have known it. For example, use CPL filter to get bluer sky or stronger color. So as to get a greater sense of hierarchy.
