CineBloom Diffusion Filters, 72mm / 5%

Overview

The CineBloom Diffusion Filter from Moment brings a dreamy, cinematic look to digital photography and videography. This 72mm filter with 5% strength softens harsh digital detail while maintaining sharpness, making it ideal for creators seeking that coveted film aesthetic without post-processing.

Key Features

• Custom diffusion recipe with specific particle blend between HD optical glass layers
• Water-, grease-, and dirt-resistant coating for durability
• Lightweight aluminum frame with knurled grip for easy handling
• Stackable design works under ND or VND filters
• Available in multiple strengths (5%, 10%, 20%)
• Maintains color accuracy and sharpness while blooming highlights

Best For

Content creators, travel photographers, and digital nomads who shoot video or stills and want to achieve a cinematic look in-camera. Particularly useful for portrait photographers, wedding videographers, and anyone creating content for social media or clients who prefer the softer film aesthetic.

Things to Consider

At $47.50, it's a significant investment for a single-purpose filter. The 5% strength is quite subtle, so those wanting more dramatic diffusion might need the 10% or 20% versions. The 72mm size limits compatibility to lenses with that specific thread size, and you'll need step-up rings for smaller lenses.

Our Take

This is a well-built, professional-grade filter that delivers on its promise of subtle cinematic diffusion. While pricey, the quality construction and reliable results make it worthwhile for serious content creators who frequently need that film look without the hassle of post-production softening.
