Irix Edge MMS CPL+Black Mist 1/2 Filter 82mm

Combining a circular polarizer with a 1/2-stop black mist diffusion, this 82mm magnetic filter delivers glare reduction, richer colours, and a subtle cinematic glow in one slim, stackable design.

Overview

The Irix Edge MMS CPL+Black Mist 1/2 is a dual-purpose magnetic filter for 82mm lenses. It cuts reflections and boosts saturation like a classic CPL, while a gentle black mist softens highlights and lowers contrast for a filmic look. The magnetic mount snaps on instantly, and the slim 5.5mm aluminium frame allows stacking with other Irix Edge MMS filters without vignetting on most lenses.

• Two effects in one: polarizer + 1/2-stop black mist
• Magnetic mount for fast, secure attachment
• Multi-layer coatings resist water, oil, and scratches
