Hoya Sq100 Golden Soft 1/8 – The Artistry of Softening Images

The Hoya Sq100 Golden Soft 1/8 filter is an ingenious tool designed to add a warm, vintage touch to your photographs or videos, by softly blurring objects and enriching the colors with a subtle gold-hued tint. The golden softness produced caters to an array of individual artistic needs, thanks to its availability in different densities 1/4 and 1/8. The artist has the freedom to select the optimal degree of intensity for every unique shooting situation.

By slightly blurring the objects in frame and fine-tuning the sharpness, the Sq100 Golden Soft adds a gentle glow to light sources. The highlight, however, is the slight warm coloration it imparts to the image. This double-duty feature lends a cinematic vintage charisma to your picture, not to mention an overall warm and friendly ambience. Spectacular for setting a romantic or cheerful scene or capturing landscapes bountiful with warm shades of floral beauty or glowing sunlight.

• In portrait photography, the Sq100 Golden Soft goes beyond softening smoothing out skin textures while dabbing the skin tone with an inviting warm hint, thereby enhancing the natural luminescence of the model.
• Between the 1/4 and the 1/8 densities, the former undoubtedly provides a stronger softening effect. However, for settings involving intense light sources close to the camera or strong backlighting, the 1/8 is typically favored to avoid overdoing the blur. On the other hand, in low light conditions, or night landscapes with distant light sources or minimal backlighting, the 1/8 might appear too refined, allowing the 1/4 to make a clearer visible impact.
