The last few photos on the last page are examples of processing the straight shots to correct the exposure, enlarge and crop, etc.

THANKS to TIFFEN and SCHNEIDER Filters for providing a set of their new Black Glimmer and Hollywood Black Magic filters for this comparison test. I also included the popular Tiffen Soft/FX and Schneider Classic Soft filters. We were looking for filters that modify resolution with a minimal effect on Contrast and Flare. See Art Adam's excellent article for a good explanation of Diffusion filters: http://provideocoalition.com/index.php/aadams/story/filter_facts/

My vivacious model is actor Keliher Walsh.

Shot with a Canon 50D, Portrait shooting mode, 400 EI, 70/200 F2.8 Sigma zoom, F4 @ around 1/125th, JPEG.

There is an anomoly with the Classic Soft 1 and to a lesser degree, the CS2. Note the bare bulb flare increasing from CS 1/8 to 1/2. Then at CS 1 the bare bulb flare lessens, but see the halation around the models shoulder?! The CS 2 has less bare bulb flare, but not the same amount of shoulder halation? Yet the diffusion on the face increase with the CS 1 and 2? Will have to check those filters of mine.
