Questions & Answers

FAQ

What are the benefits of using the LEE85 Neutral Density Hard Grad Resin Filter Set?

The LEE85 Neutral Density Hard Grad Resin Filter Set allows you to control the exposure in your images without affecting the color balance. It's particularly useful in situations where there's a significant light difference in the same scene, like landscapes where the sky is much brighter than the foreground. The filters reduce the amount of light entering the lens, allowing for a wider aperture or slower shutter speed, resulting in a shallower depth of field and a more blurred background.

What is the purpose of the grip tabs on the filters?

The grip tabs on the filters serve two main purposes. They increase the visible area of the filter, making it easier to handle. Additionally, they help keep fingerprints off the filter zone, maintaining the pristine condition of your filters and ensuring the best possible image quality.

What does the LEE85 Triple Filter Wrap do?

The LEE85 Triple Filter Wrap is a dual-purpose accessory included in the set. It serves as a protective case for storing and transporting your filters, and it can also be used as a cleaning cloth to keep your filters clean and free of dust and smudges.

Can I use these filters for both portrait and landscape photography?

Yes, the LEE85 Neutral Density Hard Grad Resin Filter Set is versatile and can be used in a variety of photography scenarios, including both portrait and landscape photography. They allow you to achieve specific aesthetic effects, like a shallower depth of field or a more blurred background.

What does 'Hard Grad' mean in the context of these filters?

'Hard Grad' refers to the transition between the dark and light areas of the filter. A hard grad filter has a sharp transition, which makes it ideal for scenes with a clear horizon line, such as seascapes or certain landscapes.

About Lee Filters L85NDGHS

Just unveiled, the LEE85 85x115mm Neutral Density Hard Grad Resin Filter Set is a high-quality, durable, and versatile tool for photographers seeking to enhance their image control. Crafted by the reputable LEE Filters, this set is designed to reduce the amount of light entering your camera lens, allowing for a wider aperture or slower shutter speed. This results in a shallower depth of field and a more blurred background, making it an ideal accessory for both portrait and landscape photography.

Each filter in this set is made from optically correct resin, ensuring the highest quality images. They feature clearly labelled grip tabs that not only increase the visible area but also keep fingerprints off the filter zone, maintaining the pristine condition of your filters.

The Neutral Density Set contains graduated resin filters that allow you to adjust exposure over part of the photograph without affecting the color balance. You can control exposure by 1, 2, and 3 stops, giving you precise control over your shots. For instance, when photographing a landscape where the sky is much brighter than the foreground, placing the neutral density part of the filter onto the sky in the frame will reduce the sky exposure without affecting the foreground. This feature enables you to keep cloud detail correctly exposed and avoid the "white out" effect caused by exposing for the foreground.

The set includes the LEE85 0.3, 0.6, and 0.9 Neutral Density Hard Grad filters, reducing exposure by 1, 2, and 3 stops respectively without affecting color balance. Also included is the LEE85 Triple Filter Wrap, a dual-purpose accessory that not only keeps your filters safe but also doubles up as a cleaning cloth.

In summary, the LEE85 85x115mm Neutral Density Hard Grad Resin Filter Set is an effective, easy-to-use tool that offers precise exposure control in a range of situations, making it a must-have for serious photographers.
