Shop the Tiffen 138mm Neutral Density 1.2 Filter for optimal light reduction and image quality. Durable ColorCore technology. Order today!

When capturing the perfect shot, the Tiffen 138mm 1.2 Neutral Density (ND) Filter is an indispensable tool for every photographer. This high-quality, durable filter provides a 4-stop exposure reduction, offering effective control over the light entering your camera lens. The 1.2 density of this versatile filter darkens the entire image, enabling you to utilize a wider aperture or slower shutter speed than typically required, thereby providing greater flexibility in various lighting conditions.The Tiffen 138mm ND Filter is not just about reducing light intensity; it also allows you to manipulate depth of field and convey movement with greater ease. Unlike some filters, this reliable ND filter does not alter the coloration of the image, making it an ideal companion for other filters in your photography toolkit.Crafted using Tiffen's proprietary ColorCore technology, this filter is more than just a simple accessory. The process involves laminating the filter substrate between two pieces of optical glass, which are then ground flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. The result is a filter that delivers consistent performance and exceptional image quality. The filter is then mounted onto precision metal rings, ensuring its durability and longevity. In essence, the Tiffen 138mm 1.2 Neutral Density Filter is a testament to Tiffen's commitment to providing photographers with tools that enhance their ability to capture the world in its truest form.

Tiffen 55mm 8x (0.9) Neutral Density Glass Filter

I take hundreds of pictures outdoors and use neutral density filters on snowy days and during sunny days on and around the water. If you shoot video, you definitely need a neutral density filter. This filter is good for video on days when it's not super bright out, and I use it quite a bit for wildlife videos on Youtube. For bright sunny days, you'll need a higher density filter.

Tiffen 77mm 4X Neutral Density Lens - Great Filter for Photos & Video

Great product I?ve already shot various things with it on my canon dslr and it doesn?t distort the color at all

Great ND Filter

Amazing product to help me control light to use flash outside

Outdoor Flash

This is the second tiffen ND glass I have, the first being for a different thread and I can very certainly say I have been nothing but satisfied with them.

Absolutely no complaint

Good value

the product is of very good quality, I thought it would introduce noise in my image, but the results are very good.  there is no noise and only a yellow cast of color that is immediately corrected in post. Good quality

Very acceptable Quality

Great glass filter, no vignette, and dials up nicely

Vivitar 67mm Variable Neutral Density (ND) Filter - 0.3 to 3.0

Just what I needed!

I use all Tiffen lenses for my wedding videography - they’re high quality AND affordable!

Great affordable ND Filter

Cuts the light but leaves a greenish color cast.

Green color cast

Solid!

They are on my camera.very happy with them

Love your company.

Budget friendly

I have never bought a neutral density filter from this brand. I was a little worried at first. But the product that came was just as great as any of the other ones that I bought. Very happy with my purchase

Great

Those filter helped me a lot filming in the daytime. I didn’t have overexposed footage which was the reason I bought in the first place, without it I had recorded footage that I barely saved. This filter took care of that with no problem.

The filter you need

A must for landscape photography. I used this filter on my last trip to Glacier National Park and the result was exceptional. Set the camera on Aperture Priority and shoot away.  Eliminate glare and let's all the colors in.

Great filter

Tiffen ND filter

Good value. I used it on an extremely sunny day and produced a great image. It also had the benefit of providing around a 2 stop reduction in light giving more flexibility.

I would recommend this filter. Works as expected and is great quality. Unbeatable for the price. Only 4 stars instead of 5 because it is very hard to remove from the lense.

Great filter for a great price

If you're not sure why the above title is true, put this filter on your wish list and go find out; the web is filled with tutorials on how to use one. The things that an ND filter lets you do with your camera you simply cannot do any other way are, with a measure of creativity and patience, pretty amazing. One tip: get the Xume adapter/filter rings for whatever lens you think you will use this filter on most. It's nearly impossible to compose your shot with the filter in place, and the Xume system lets you easily place and remove the filter while you are setting up your shot. Tiffen makes some of the best filters on the market; yes, you can pay a lot more, but I would challenge anyone to prove that a ND four-stop filter does a better job than this one. Highly recommended.

You need one of these in your bag

I've never bought a ND filter before so I wasn't sure what to expect but this had the perfect tint.

Perfect Glass

Did the job above and beyond my expectations. Goth them for my other two cameras/

Excellent for the price

I use the ND filters when using color film.I load up with ISO 400 or 800 film instead of pushing or pulling the color film. Color film is touchy. I collect film cameras, 53 so far in all. Don't have enough ND filters to go around.

Film Shooter

I have used Tiffen filters for years and find them consistenly very good.  These are no exception and I have used their Neutral Denity filters in my travel photography.  They give excellent results.

Tiffen Quality Always Top-Drawer

I'm using the 3-stop 62mm ND filter for video and so far it works well. No noticeable color shifts or loss of sharpness. Only complaint is that there's no convenient case to carry it so I had to use one from a different filter.

so far so good

Works as expected. I use it on a Tamron 70-200 2.8 lens. 
I photograph motocross racing’. I like using a shutter speed of 200 to show the wheels turning. I can use a wide aperture to defocus the background with this with this ND filter.
