About Schneider Graduated ND Filter
The Graduated Neutral Density Filter is used for Cinematography. 50% of the filter is clear and 50% has a Neutral Density of 1.2 (4 stops). The transition from clear to ND is done with a Soft Edge (SE) transition line. Soft Edge grads lines are used with wide angle and normal focal length lenses. Graduated Neutral Density filters are used to balance exposure within a scene. One very common use is to balance the exposure of sky and earth in a landscape, avoiding overexposed blank white skies.
Schneider Graduated ND Filter Features
- To enable slow shutter speeds to be used, especially with high speed films, to record movement in subjects such as waterfalls, clouds, or cars
- To decrease depth of field by allowing wider apertures to be used, which helps separate subjects from their background
- To decrease the effective ISO of high speed film (above ISO 400) and allow it to be used outdoors in bright situations
- To allow cine and video cameras (which have fixed shutter speeds) to film subjects such as snow, sand or other bright scenes which could cause overexposure
- Schneider Graduated Color filter feature crystal clear, water-white optical glass, protected against edge-chipping and delamination by Schneider's unique Edge Seal, which also significantly reduces edge reflections and flare
- Schneider filter is ground and polished to a precise flatness and plane parallelism
- It is designed and manufactured with the highest possible degree of consistency, you can swap like filters mid-shoot with no discernible variation in color or effect
