About the PolarPro 135-GLDMST-82MM

From our tech experts at CEN

The PolarPro McKinnon 135 Series 82mm 1/4 Gold Mist is a diffusion filter for camera lenses with an 82mm filter thread. It uses German-made Chroma glass to produce a Kodak Gold film stock aesthetic — a cinematic, vintage look for film and digital creators. The weather-sealed 6061 aluminium frame has anti-reflective, anti-fingerprint and anti-scratch coatings.

Who it suits

This filter suits photographers and filmmakers seeking a vintage, filmic look with minimal post-processing. The 1/4 strength is subtle and versatile for everyday use. If your lens takes a 77mm filter, the McKinnon 135 Series 77mm Gold Mist is the same filter in the next size down.

Our tech experts advise

Before ordering, confirm the filter thread diameter marked on your lens barrel — this is the 82mm version only. The filter ships in a retro 6061 aluminium film canister with a Sunny 16 Rule cheat sheet inside the cap. A microfibre cloth is included for cleaning the Chroma glass.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Which filter do I need - ND, polariser or variable ND?

A: A polariser cuts glare and deepens colour. Fixed ND filters reduce light by a set amount for controlled shutter speeds. Variable NDs adjust across a range, making them the flexible choice for video. The filter type and strength are listed in the Specification tab.

Q: Will this filter fit my lens or drone?

A: Filters are made per thread size or per drone model. Check the size in the product title and Specification tab against your lens thread or drone model, or contact CEN to confirm.

Q: Do filters degrade image quality?

A: Quality glass filters are designed to be optically neutral. Cheap filters can introduce colour casts and softness, which is why we stock cinema-grade brands with strong colour accuracy.

Q: What is the difference between the Gold Mist and Black Mist?

A: Both are 1/4 strength McKinnon 135 Series diffusion filters. The Gold Mist is inspired by Kodak Gold film stock, while the Black Mist gives a Kodak Portra look with subtle diffusion and shadow depth.

Q: What thread size is this filter?

A: This filter is 82mm. Check that your lens filter thread is 82mm, which is usually marked on the lens barrel or inside the lens cap.

Q: What comes in the box?

A: The 82mm filter, a retro aluminium film canister to store it and a microfibre cloth. The canister cap has a Sunny 16 exposure cheat sheet inside.
