About Tiffen Ultra Contrast Filter

Because capturing the perfect shot means mastering the balance of light and shadow, the Tiffen 4x4" Ultra Contrast 2 Filter emerges as an indispensable tool for photographers and videographers alike. This high-quality, durable filter is expertly crafted to mitigate the challenges of shooting in bright, sunlit exteriors where exposing for highlights or shadows can compromise the other, resulting in under- or over-exposure.

The Tiffen Ultra Contrast 2 Filter has earned accolades for its innovative design, including a Technical Achievement Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences. Its effectiveness lies in its ability to harness ambient light-not just the light within the image area-to uniformly soften shadows across the frame. This feature is particularly beneficial for professionals seeking to maintain the integrity of their images without compromising on sharpness or inducing highlight flare.

With its versatile application, the filter is a go-to solution for scenarios that demand nuanced contrast control. The higher the grade of the filter, the more it reduces contrast, allowing for a precise adjustment to achieve the desired visual effect. Whether for cinematic productions or high-stakes photography, the Tiffen 4x4" Ultra Contrast 2 Filter is a testament to the brand's commitment to providing effective, professional-grade equipment that enhances the visual storytelling process.
