Review: Walking Way mist filter on a CampSnap Pro

CampSnap Pro has a 37mm threaded mount around its lens which lets you attach filters for a unique look. Typically, I just want whatever comes out of the camera (I’m not really into tweaking my pics after the fact with Photoshop) so attaching physical filters and choosing between vintage and black and white digital filters on the camera itself is right up my alley.

Here is the exact filter I shot these photos with: Walking Way 37mm Soft Focus Filter This filter creates a very soft and dreamy effect that I found very fun to experiment with. Be sure to get it in 37mm size if you intend to put it on a CampSnap Pro.

Mist filter review

The mist filter is very easy to use. It screws on over the lens like so: CampSnap Pro with mist filter setup

You can also attach a lens cap on top of the filter: CampSnap Pro with mist filter and lens cap

This link goes to the lens cap pictured here that I use on my CampSnap Pro. Be sure to get it in 37mm, whether you plan to put it directly on your CampSnap Pro or stack it on top of a filter.

I really like the results I get with the mist filter. It’s not for every situation, but the soft bloom adds interest and softens the end result into something that doesn’t feel so sharp the way digital photos tend to look. This was my first time shooting photos with any kind of filter, so now I’m curious to see what else is out there and possibly bring this same effect into some of my film photography.
