How to Use ND Filters: An Introduction
Read MoreHelping to balance exposure when working in high-contrast situations, the 100 x 150mm Soft Graduated Neutral Density 0.45 Filter from LEE Filters is specifically designed to selectively control brightness in difficult lighting. The filter's design places the 0.45, 1.5-stop density at the top of the filter and then transitions to clear by the center of the filter for a gradual, natural appearance. The soft-edge transition between the density and clear areas is well-suited for photographing scenes with an indistinct or undefined horizon line, as well as when working with wide-angle lenses. This filter is constructed from optical resin that is both durable and helps to maintain high clarity, and is compatible with the LEE 100mm filter holder.
Graduated neutral density places the most density at the edge of the filter and tapers to clear by the center of the filter in order to accommodate photographing scenes with large bright areas, such as a daytime sky.
Soft-edge transition between density and clear portions of the filter is suitable for photographing scenes with an indistinct, non-apparent horizon or line between light and shadow, such as a woodland or interior. It is also well-suited for use with wide-angle lenses.
Neutral density 0.45 provides a 1.5-stop reduction in light in selective areas.
Constructed from optical resin for overall clarity and durability.
Compatible for use with the LEE 100mm filter holder.
Included filter pouch protects the filter when not in use.
