The 55mm Color-Grad Neutral-Density 0.6 Lens Filter is perfect for toning down excessively bright areas without altering the color balance. Graduated gray filter in rotating mount allows one portion of the scene to be darkened without altering the remaining portion. Use to tame sandy beaches, snow scenes and bright skies for better overall tonal rendition. Improves pictures dramatically when the foreground is much brighter than the background, or vice versa.
The Tiffen 55mm Graduated 0.6 ND Filter is a graduated neutral density filter that helps to specifically darken skies and other bright areas of the image. The filter is densest at the edge and tapers to clear by the middle, with a feathered line between the density and clear areas. Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image and the 0.6 density provides a 2 stop reduction in light from entering the lens.
Tiffen filters are made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass, grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, and then mounting to precision metal rings.
0.6 ND graduated filter for darkening skies and other bright areas of the image. Feathered edge is neither soft nor hard, providing a natural-appearing taper between the density and clear areas of the filter. Neutral density filters do not affect the overall coloration of the image.
