The center focus stays razor sharp while the edges melt into that dreamy blur—exactly the look I wanted for portrait shots. It transforms a simple photo into something almost cinematic.

Finally got this filter and the way it blurs the edges while keeping the center sharp is exactly what I wanted for my portrait shots. The effect adds a dreamy feel without making the subject look soft.

Shot a full set of portraits yesterday and the center sharpness held up perfectly while the edges melted into that dreamy glow. The halo effect is exactly what I'd hoped for—takes about twenty seconds to dial in, but the look is unmistakable and cinematic.
