DESCRIPTION

By blocking 3 f-stops of light from half your image, you can balance your exposure when the foreground is darker than the background – such as shooting landscapes in the mountains. The hard graduation creates a natural blending of light.

Our Plus+ range features 20 layers of nano-coating providing easier cleaning and better protection against water, oil, and scratches. These layers also provide a higher maximum light transmission and a more consistent transmission curve for truer light reduction.

For best results, use our Hard Graduated ND8 Plus+ with lenses of focal lengths 35mm and above. For ultra-wide angle lenses, we recommend our Soft Graduated ND8 Filter Plus+ because it provides a more natural blending of light.

Correzione anche in interni dalle lame di luce che entrano da finestre o emesse da faretti

Non facile da gestire, ma permette di risolvere situazioni che vanno oltre la capacità dinamica dei sensori e senza ricorrere al bracketing e al tool sw HDR che sovente fornisce risultati meno realistici.

Solid filter at a reasonable price.

The filter worked ideally in conjunction with a 90mm lens (for APS-C).

Fantastic filter option for landscapes

This is a good option if you want to travel with smaller gear, instead of going with square filters.
