Tiffen 4x5.65" Coral 1 Hard Edge Graduated Filter - Horizontal Orientation

How can you elevate your photography to the next level The answer lies in the Tiffen 4x5.65" Coral 1 Hard Edge Graduated Filter, a highly sought-after tool in the photography industry. This filter empowers photographers to either create captivating illusions or enhance the authenticity of their shots.

The Tiffen Color-Grad filters are renowned for their versatility, offering a myriad of applications. They can inject vibrant color into a dull sky, alter a specific color in a scene to generate a unique special effect, or enhance existing colors to create subtle yet impactful color drama. Moreover, these filters are instrumental in achieving a more balanced exposure in situations with uneven lighting.

The Tiffen Color-Grad filters come in a wide array of sizes and colors, catering to diverse photography needs. They are available in soft edge, hard edge, or as a special order, attenuated gradients. The transition area in these filters varies based on the size of the filter, ranging from 1/2" to 2" wide in soft edge filters, and approximately 1/4" to 1/2" wide in hard edge filters before reaching full density.

The 4x5.65" Coral 1 Hard Edge Graduated Filter is a rectangular-shaped filter, designed for horizontal orientation. The horizontal or vertical designation refers to the filter's position in relation to the camera when the grad line is horizontal.

The choice between a "hard" edge or "soft" edge filter largely depends on the type of lens you use and the subject matter. Telephoto lenses utilize a smaller portion of the filter, making a hard edge filter the ideal choice for long lenses. On the other hand, wide-angle lenses, which make objects appear smaller, are better paired with a soft edge filter.

In conclusion, the Tiffen 4x5.65" Coral 1 Hard Edge Graduated Filter is an indispensable tool for photographers aiming to create stunning, professional-grade images.
