The diffusion filter is to make the video a bit softer, taking away the
"sharp" look which video has, and reducing the contrast. The higlights will
be blown out a bit as well, giving a slightly glowing edge around all
bright objects.
Have a look on the Tiffen website:
http://www.tiffen.com/results.html?search_type_no=355&tablename=filters&family=Tiffen+Filters&search_filter_format=Screw-In
The have pictures on it to show what the various filters do.
