Formatt Hitech Firecrest Ultra 100x150mm Neutral Density ND 0.9, Soft Edge Reverse Graduated Filter

With the pioneering use of carbon-neutral coatings, Firecrest Ultra 100x150mm Neutral Density ND 0.9 Soft Edge Reverse Graduated Filters have revolutionized the photography industry by delivering unparalleled neutrality. These high-quality filters are meticulously crafted by bonding the coating between two pieces of optical-grade polished glass, using a precise amount of a specially developed neutral bonding agent. This unique process ensures the durability of the filters and provides two key areas of protection.

Firstly, the critical Neutral Density coating is effectively shielded from wear and tear, offering a longer lifespan than traditional coated filters. Unlike standard filters where a single piece of glass is externally coated and safeguarded with an anti-scratch treatment, Firecrest Ultra filters offer superior protection, as no anti-scratch coating can match the toughness of glass.

Secondly, these professional-grade filters boast more structural strength than a single piece of glass, ensuring they can withstand the rigors of regular use. As the first bonded, then lapped and polished filters in the photographic market, Firecrest Ultra filters set a new standard in filter technology.

These versatile filters also feature lower reflectivity than their predecessors, offering exceptional clarity and sharpness, even at extended focal lengths. This makes them an effective tool for landscape and architectural photography, where balancing exposure between bright highlights and dark shadows is crucial. The soft edge and reverse graduated design of these filters provide a gradual transition between dark and light areas, resulting in a more natural and dramatic effect in your images.

In summary, the Firecrest Ultra 100x150mm Neutral Density ND 0.9 Soft Edge Reverse Graduated Filter is a durable, versatile, and effective tool for photographers seeking to enhance their images while maintaining the neutrality that has made Firecrest a popular choice among professionals.
