It takes the light sources of brighter stars and transforms them into 4-pointed stars, adding a mesmerizing effect to your night sky photography and setting a new standard for astrophotography.The Sparkle 4x filter also offers a soft effect in the absence of strong light sources, creating a dreamy atmosphere that's perfect for portrait, flower, and landscape photography. You can adjust the soft effect by increasing the focal length towards the telephoto end. Plus, with a rotatable front frame, you can change the angle of the cross pattern, giving you the flexibility to personalize your photos even further.Remember, the cross effect appears from single point sources, and the strength of the light source, the focal distance, and the aperture value can impact the cross effect. If your image is too dark or too bright, try adjusting the exposure compensation. For a crisper cross effect, focus on the light source. The 82mm Sparkle 4x Multi-Coated Glass Filter is a versatile and durable tool that can enhance a variety of photography styles. It's not just a filter; it's a tool to spark your creativity and bring your photographic vision to life.
