The NiSi Explorer Collection 100x150mm graduated neutral density filters (GND) are made for adventures! These filters feature a special B270 tempered glass that makes them twice as durable as other typical glass filters. And of course they do not affect the coloration of the image and also have IR coating and the same dirt, water and oil repellant Nano coating as NiSi's regular filters.
NiSi Explorer Soft Graduated Filter GND8 (0.9) / 3 Stops is used to even out differences in brightness between the sky and landscape. The upper half of the filter is dark gray and reduces the light by 3 stops, which increases the color saturation and makes clouds more visible. The lower half is completely clear.
The transition between the two halves is soft which makes the filter suitable for motifs with trees, buildings, mountains and other details that break the horizon.
The NiSi 100mm Explore filters are compatible with the NiSi 100mm filter system and can be used on lenses with a filter thread from 49 mm to 95 mm.
Note: These filters have undergone a tempering and hardening process to make them much less prone to accidental damage. But this does not mean they are unbreakable. After a period of time, the hardening may also decline.
