This 4-stop, 85 x 85mm Formatt Hitech ND Filter is a neutral density filter that provides a 4-stop exposure reduction and is compatible with a Formatt Hitech 85mm Aluminum Modular Holder or Cokin P Series Filter Holder. Its 1.2 density creates a darkening of the entire image, allowing you to photograph with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed than normally required. By slowing your exposure time or increasing your aperture, you can control depth of field and convey movement more easily. Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image and are ideal for pairing with other filters. This filter is not coated and is constructed from optical-quality resin for clarity as well as color fidelity.

Formatt Hitech ND Filter Reviews
Sweet
I used this to shot a waterfall in the late afternoon and got a nice 8 second shot on iso 100 at f/11. Love this!
Formatt Hitech 10 stop ND filter
I used this right away. It arrived in a timely manner and packaged securely from bhphoto. Once the ND filter arrived, I took it to the beach to test it out. I shot at mid -day, partly cloudy skies . F/11, iso 50 , 2-5 seconds of exposure (depending on how much ambient light was available, ie : shade etc. ) The Formatt Hitech filter, performed very well. It allowed me to keep an F/11 which kept my photo to be extremely sharp, instead of F/18+ which softens the image a bit. This in turn resulted in a high quality slow exposure shot, with the desirable silky water look. I can't imagine what I can do with it at sunset or in lower light settings. I believe there is a slight color cast towards warms, which I noticed with my other Formatt Hitech Nd filter as well. However this is not a game changer if you shoot in raw. The ND filter also came in a protective sleeve, and is well priced for the quality of product.
