Tiffen 4x5.65" Low Light Contrast 1 Filters - Bright lights or sunlight create problems when the ratio between the highlight and shadow areas is beyond the latitude of the film.

If you expose for the highlights, the shadows appear without detail. If you expose for the shadows, the result is washed-out, overly bright highlights. Contrast reduction is achieved by lightening shadows without overexposing highlights or by darkening highlights without darkening shadows further.

Tiffen Low Light Contrast filters are more effective in dealing with contrast in lower light scenarios

Tiffen Ultra Contrast filters work by using the ambient light surrounding the image area as well as the light in the actual image area itself

They lower contrast uniformly, with little or no loss of sharpness, throughout the scene even when there are varying degrees of brightness within the image

Shadow areas are opened up, revealing more detail, but without any flare or halation from direct light sources or bright reflections

Even direct shooting into the sun produces no flare or halation

Q: 9. My old Celestar came with five Parks 1.25" filters, including their "ALP" (anti-light pollution) filter. My yard gets heavy light pollution, so I'd pay for a more expensive filter if I were sure it would give me much better performance. Any filter comparisons out there?

A: The Celestron filter is effective in light pollution situations. However, I cannot compare it to the filter that you already have and don't know if it will be any more reducing of light pollution in your yard. My suggestion is to buy the filter and compare.
