This is a special filter that allows you to photograph one subject in three different ways. The actual appearance varies depending on factors such as the focal length of the lens. An example is shown at the end of the images. This product is an old, discontinued item, so there may be minor scratches, dirt, and coating degradation that don't show up in the product images. The Mirage filter inherently reduces resolution, so this shouldn't be a major issue, but please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about minor details.
