Pairing infrared attenuation with solid neutral density, the 4.5" Round IRND 1.5 Filter from Tiffen is a versatile solution to reduce exposure values and achieve neutral color. The neutral density portion of the filter offers a 5 stop exposure reduction for working with longer shutter speeds or wider aperture settings. The IR portion attenuates infrared wavelengths above 700nm to benefit working with CCD and CMOS sensors under difficult lighting conditions where infrared pollution can affect color balance. This IR design also works proportionate to the density value, allowing you to achieve comparably neutral results from density to density in varying lighting conditions. The filter is constructed from water white optical glass and utilizes Tiffen ColorCore technology for maintained clarity and quality. It measures 4.5" in diameter and is suitable for use in select matte boxes and sunshades.
