The Tiffen 5x6" 1/4 Coral Graduated Filterhelps to specifically add a warm, pale orange coloration to skies and other bright areas of an image while allowing a portion of the image to remain neutrally colored. The filter's coloring is densest at the edge and tapers to clear by the middle, with a hard-edged transition between the density and clear areas. The 1/4 color density provides less coral coloration than the 1/2 density, but more than the 1/8 density filter.

This filter is made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass and grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. It measures 5 x 6" / 127 x 152.4mm.

Note: A horizontal orientation filter's line of transition runs parallel to the long side of the filter.

1/4 Density Color Graduated Filter    Coral Coloring in Select Areas    Hard-Step Graduation    ColorCore Technology

Provides a natural-looking warming effect to select areas of the image.

Graduated filter design keeps a portion of the image neutral, resulting in a more realistic look while allowing for the sky or other bright areas to take on the color of the density.

A: It should be a standard half-filled graduated ND filter, but we agree the photo is very bad and does not properly show this.

Q: 3. I see there's lots of ND options for this. What will be a good recommendation for a first horizon ND filter, let's say for the sea shore and landscapes (Horseshoe Bend in Page AZ)? Thanks.

A: Most of the photos of Horseshoe Bend feature an area of landscape where there is a straight horizon without trees, mountains, or buildings between the bright sky above and the rock formation below. As such, a very hard edge filter attenuating the sky's light by three stops (0.9 ND) such as the LEE Filters 100 x 150mm Very Hard Graduated Neutral Density 0.9 Filter (B&H# LEGND.9VH46) would be ideal for that: https://bhpho.to/3tSwgZs
