Kenko NOSTALTONE series are a filter that was created with the goal of creating a landscape that is "like a scene from an anime", a familiar scene that will move your heart with its warmth. It adds a warm and nostalgic atmosphere, which is enhanced with dramatic flares and ghosting to express the world in a nostalgic way. Three types, NOSTALTONE ORANGE, NOSTALTONE BLUE, and NOSTALTONE GREEN with different nuances of color, contrast, and light diffusion effects, are available. Main Features ■Create a nostalgic atmosphere with soft green tones A gentle, transparent green tint spreads softly across the entire image, creating a nostalgic atmosphere. In lush, green scenes, it enhances the vibrancy of natural greens. Blue skies shift slightly toward cyan tones, evoking both freshness and warmth, with a subtle sense of nostalgia. NOSTALTONE GREEN reduces contrast between highlights and shadows, helping to preserve gradation and prevent blown highlights, giving images a film-like mood. ■Occasional pink-toned ghosting for a dreamlike accent While NOSTALTONE GREEN offers a mild soft-focus effect, it diffuses light beautifully in backlit or side-lit scenes and when strong light sources are included. This gentle diffusion lowers contrast slightly, creating soft, impressionistic light with a delicate glow. ■Subtly diffused light for a soft, dreamy look To achieve its nostalgic mood, the NOSTALTONE series uses a coating that intentionally allows surface reflections to appear more easily. As a result, depending on the angle of incoming backlight, pinkish ghost effects may appear, adding a subtle, dreamlike accent to your photos. ■Comparison effects Comparing the three filter effects in the NOSTALTONE series, ORANGE and GREEN provide a moderate soft effect, while BLUE provides a stronger soft effect. Also, the ghost colors differ for each: Orange tends to produce blue-toned ghost effect, Blue tends to produce orange-toned ghost effect, and Green tends to produce pink-toned ghost effect. Please note that: *Because the green tint is applied strongly, fort a clearer, more transparent look, it’s recommended to apply positive exposure compensation. **The filter glass is intentionally coated to make reflections more likely, enhancing its expressive effect. The appearance of colorful ghosting is a design feature, not a defect. ***The filter glass appears green when seen through transmitted light, but pink when viewed in reflected light.
