i am just learning the proper way to use cokin filters; i think they are very good quality & the right price.  i would recommend them to anyone

love this filter

The grad grey filter helps to provide a more balance exposure across the frame which is very handy for sunrise and sunset photography. It allows capturing the foreground as more than just shadows while preventing the sky highlights from being blown without resorting to HDR post processing of multiple exposures.

Helps balance sunrise/sunset exposures

... it's plastic, not glass.

Nice gradual change from clear to dark makes it very user-friendly. Being plastic has one benefit - if you're clumsy like me and drop it, it won't break.
However, the light transmission with any plastic is not quite as good as glass, but in the final photo that's really imperceptible unless your filter is really scratched up.

Great in every way but ...

I thought this filter was decent.  I do wish that it had a more gradual transition but it works good enough for me.

Decent filter

Received what I ordered in a timely manor. 

Good

This is a good graduated ND filter. I hand hold it in front of the lens. The best ones are glass and much more expensive. I have to be more carful with Cokin, this works for me.

It does just what it is supposed to do.

This filter is great for capturing sunrise and sunset colors.  Just slide it in the Cokin filter holder and adjust the transition line to match the horizon.  The filter balances the bright sky and the dark landscape to bring out all the details.

Great for sunrise and sunset photos

I used this filter when I was in my color film photo class it came in handy.

Cokin Series P Grey Graduated ND Filter

Great photo aid

I use it to darken the skies and not the subject, when there is too much brightness in certain areas and it even out the background

just what I wanted

My usual subjects are landscapes.  This is a necessary filter to control sky burn-out

Just What I Needed

This is probably the most affordable GND on the market which is why this is the second time I've owned this filter (the first one became scratched and was then lost).
As with most of the lower end Cokin filters, they are plasticy, can scratch very easily, and are likely to add a slight magenta tint to the darker end of the filter.  That is a given.  Sometimes you may want to stack this filter with a stronger ND for longer exposures but your image will have a STRONG magenta tint throughout.

But if you're on a budget and don't mind a little post-color correction, this is fine.  I would advise making sure to purchase a soft filter pouch, as the plastic containers that P-series Cokin filters come in don't do the trick and because they will scratch or chip within them.

Budget Friendly GND

I purchased the Graduated ND filter after reading Bryan Peterson's book "Understanding Exposure." I ran some test shots following the guidance in the book. What a difference this filter makes!

Makes a big difference!

I would buy again.

I would buy again

I was most interested in the Cokin P holder and bought this so I could acquaint myself with utilizing the complete system.  While I do plan on experimenting with other filters, but this will suffice and works great.

Great budget item to start with.

These filter perplexed me for the longest time because they did not seem like they functioned as advertized.  I found a PDF file on Cokins website which tells the TRUTH and accurately descrtibes these filters.  The filter description on Cokins website, Adorama, and other webstie is INCORRECT

121L - 2X graduated neutral density filter reduces the light 1 stop.  Hard edge.  Grey2 color.
120 - 3.3X graduated neutral density filter, reduces the light 1.5 stops.  Hard edge.  Grey1 color.
121M - 4X graduated neutral density filter, reduces the light 2 stops.  Hard edge. Grey2 color
121 - 8X graduated neutral density filter, reduces the light 3 stops.  Hard edge. Grey2 color.
121S - 8X graduate neutral density filter, reduces the light 3 stops.  Soft edge - graduation extends to 3/4 of the filter. Grey2 color

Description on Page is Incorrect

great when varying contrast lighting is a problem

The Way to Go

Great when shooting scenes with multi lighting

useful to correct difference between lighter parts of image and neighboring darker parts, like sky vs the rest of picture.

very useful

Great to correct a histogram that shows a peak in the dark range and a second peak in the very bright range.  Using this filter allows the exposure to be more consistent.  A grouped histogram allows better manipulation of brightness and contract without blown or underexposed pixels.

Great Histogram Fixer

Used this filter this past weekend for some sunset shots.  Very happy with the results.  Great product.

Great for bright sun

Great Filter

works great for toning down overly bright sky

performs as advertised

Mine has a slight magenta color to it, only in the darkened half.  I actually like the effect it has on sunrise/sunset photos, which is what I mainly use this filter for, so I didn't bother trying to return it.

color cast, otherwise great

Very good quality,I use it ween the sky is to bright,I just hold it in front of the lens.I intend to a verity of the Cokin filters over time.I do not buy junk and this is a nice quality product.

[...]

Bought a Cokin wallet at the same time - stores with protection yet instant availability. Both great products!

Dramatic control of sky and clouds

I bought this filter to help me deal with bright sky backgrounds. My first use of the filter was in Spain where we had very bright light much of the day. Since I was not able to always time my photography due to travel, the filter really helped with situations with particularly bright light in the background. Blues in the sky were deepened and the balance of light in the photo was really good.

Great filter!

I really like this system of filters.  However, not when I am in a hurry.  Takes a little longer to put on camera, than a screw type filter.

I like it!

Helps to controll bright areas for a more consistant tonal range during exposure, especially with bright skies.  I used the rectangular filter, which allows me to position it where I want.
