This Ice 150 x 190mm Soft-Edge Graduated ND 0.3 Filter is compatible with filter holders that can accommodate filters that are 150mm wide and 2mm thick. It helps to darken specific areas of an image, such as bright skies, while allowing for a normal, unaffected exposure in the other regions of the image. The filter is densest at the edge and tapers to clear by the middle, with a soft-edged line of transition between the dense and clear areas. A neutral density filter with a soft-edged line of transition is able to filter the sky while minimizing its effect on the land. It is particularly useful where the transition between sky and foreground is indeterminate, such as images featuring mist, fog, or the tops of trees. Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image and the density provides up to a 1-stop reduction in light from entering the lens.
This graduated ND filter is constructed from optical glass for clarity as well as color fidelity. A plastic case is included for storage and transport.
