The Tiffen 4x5.65" Plum Soft-Edge Graduated Filterhelps to specifically add a warm, pale purple 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 soft-edged transition between the density and clear areas. The 2 color density provides less plum coloration than the 3 density, but more than the 1 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 4 x 5.65" / 101.6 x 143.5mm.

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

2 Density Color Graduated Filter    Plum Coloring in Select Areas    Soft-Step Graduation    ColorCore Technology

Provides a warm pale purple coloring 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.

Q: 1. Considering how cheap this filter is, would I be able to put this on my 24-105mm and have the quality and sharpness remain the same?

A: I believe any filter added to a lens lowers the quality but not enough to be noticeable unless you are really pixel peeking. That being said, I can detect no loss of quality with this filter. I use it on my Nikon 16-35 for landscapes without hesitation.

Q: 2. Does this filter fit a Sony FE 24-70 2.8 GM 2 lens (without touching the lens)?

A: Yes, this will work with the Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II.

Q: 3. Are these filters IRND ?

A: These filters are not IRND.

Q: 4. Does this work protect the lense from liquid splatter?

A: The Tiffen 62mm UV Protector Filter, B&H # TIUVP62, would protect the lens from direct liquid splatter. However, do note the filter is not waterproof. In the event of liquid splatter, it is recommended to wipe off the filter (and/or lens) as soon as possible. If you plan to be around splattering liquid, you may also consider purchasing a rain cover such as the Ruggard Fabric Rain Shield Small (14"), B&H # RURCFC714, or the Ruggard RC-P18 Rain Cover for DSLR with Lens up to 18" (Pack of 2), B&H # RURCP18, in addition to the UV Protection filter, or an underwater housing compatible for use with your camera.

Q: 8. Can I stack 2 of these filters on the back of the lens? Thanks.

A: Unfortunately, most lenses with a rear slot only have enough space for a single filter, therefore they could not be stacked.

Q: 9. Is there a step down to 95mm thread available?

A: We would have to recommend not using this on a lens that is larger than it's rear opening. We feel that vignetting would be far too likely.

Q: 10. Will this work with Canon RF 10-20mm f4?

A: The IRIX Edge Gelatin Filter Set will not work with the Canon RF 10-20 f4.
