The Tiffen 6x6" Tropic Blue Soft-Edge Graduated Filterhelps to specifically add a cool, greenish-blue 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 3 color density provides more tropic blue coloration than the 2 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 6 x 6" / 152.4 x 152.4mm.

3 Density Color Graduated Filter    Tropic Blue Coloring in Select Areas    Soft-Step Graduation    ColorCore Technology

Provides a deep greenish blue 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: 4. When a polarizing filter is in the neutral position, does it still weaken light? And can it be used as a lens protection filter as the UV filter?

A: Most Circular Polarizers cause about a 1.5-2.5 stop of light loss when on your lens depending on where the filter has been rotated to. Circular Polarizers are not designed as protection filters but they can protect the front element of your lens like any other filter.
