LEE Filters Neutral Density Graduated 0.45 Resin Camera Filter - Hard Graduation (100x150mm)

All over ND standards are another filter that can be classed as essential in modern photography. The filter absorbs light evenly across the visible spectrum, therefore reducing the light entering the lens without affecting the image colour. Traditionally used on film for extending shutter speeds in bright conditions, it is now becoming essential to digital photographers for reducing the sensitivity of sensor chips on cameras which have relatively high minimum ISO settings.

Extending exposure times allows for movement in an image, be it people, water, foliage or clouds. The effects, if used with care can be impressive.

Reduces exposure to selected area by 1½ stops, without affecting colour balance.
