Why settle for less than perfect exposure in your photography  The 55mm Color Graduated ND .6 (4x) Filter is a high-quality, durable solution designed to masterfully balance light intensity between the sky and the foreground in your images. This filter is particularly effective for outdoor photography, where the contrast between a bright sky and a darker landscape can be challenging to capture without the right equipment.Crafted with a soft-edge, single-coated design, this versatile filter boasts a 0.6 density (2 stop reduction), providing photographers with the control needed to achieve a more dramatic and visually appealing image. The graduated neutral density effect ensures a seamless transition from the tinted to the clear part of the filter, allowing for a natural blending of light and color.Easy to use and incredibly effective, this filter is ideal for those looking to enhance their landscape and architectural photography without the hassle of post-production editing. By reducing the light entering the lens, it enables the use of wider apertures and slower shutter speeds, resulting in images with a shallower depth of field and more pronounced creative effects.Choose the 55mm Color Graduated ND .6 (4x) Filter for its exceptional quality and features that open up a world of creative possibilities. Whether you're capturing the grandeur of a sunset or the intricate details of urban architecture, this filter is an indispensable tool for photographers who demand the best from their equipment.

I don't know why I didn't purchase this sooner! Popped this bad boy on my canon 50mm lens and helps so much outdoors if you want to achieve that cinema look.  These are a must have for any photographer or cinematographer without built in ND filters.

I love this filter so far! I’ve only been able to use it once but it did what it was supposed to do.

Great filter!

Sent as gift to family member. Very pleased

As described

Arrived as promised. It's on a very pricey lens and doing its work!

Very pleased with the product and the service.

High quality filter priced right. My experience with Tiffen filters has, without exception, been first-rate. Can’t go wrong with Tiffen filters!

Great mid-price filter.

Great filter

I haven't got to use it that much yet, so far I think I'm going to like it.

Tiffen 77mm color Graduated Filter

I haven't used the filter much yet, but it does do what I wanted. I have only one nit to pick -- there is no obvious marking for the center /top of the darker part of the filter. It would be useful if there were such that could be seen even when the lens hood is on.

Works as advertised.

Great add on lens if you take a lot of outdoors landscape photos, adds great color for situations where top half or bottom half of scene is washed out.

Tiffen 52mm Color Graduated ND .6

I find the grading to be a bit abrupt (hence visible in my captures) but it's not bad for the price. I'm happy for now and will look for something better when my photos warrant it :)

Grading is somewhat abrupt, but good value for price

One problem is the filter is actually two parts. One ring attaches to the camera and the other rotates to allow the gradient feature to rotate to cover the area for darkening. The attachment part has a griping part but it is level with the rotating ring. Would be nice if it was slightly larger for better griping

This is a wonderful filter for the bright skies in Arizona. Also leaves the rest of your image unchanged.

I love this - it is a simple and inexpensive graduated filter that screws right onto the lens. It rotates smoothly. Even though it didn't look that way, the gradation is really subtle - no obvious line. Watch your metering or bracket though. I didn't notice any off-coloring, but I've only used it for sunset shots. I would like one that is even darker.

simple way to improve sunset pictures

I used the Tiffen ND grad to shoot a sunset, rotating the dark side to the sky. It brought out the colors of the sky beautifully.

I'm not a filter expert but it looks more like a split ND than a graduated, hence the reason for 4 stars. I thought it should have a more gradual change.

Otherwise, I'm happy with the filter's performance.

Does just what it's supposed to!

I haven't had a chance to use it in a real photo shoot yet, but I have experimented with it and it works well. Can't wait to try it on a nice sunset or sunrise.
Price was good and Adorama service and delivery was excellent as usual.

I like it!

I use this to help darken skys for better dynamic range. The only problem with it is your horizon is pretty much fixed becuase there is no adjustment on the filter unlike a Cokin system which I find much better.

Tiffen 77mm Color Graduated ND .6 Filter

TIFFEN Brand Filters:  Quality at a reasonable price point.  Love them.

Tiffen 82mm Grad ND Filter

exactly what I was looking for to tone down the sky to even the exposure for twilight time exposures...  have used it successfully in combination with other ND filters.  constructive suggestion - mark the filter on the ring to idendify the horizon - this filter is not always in front.

Exactly what I needed

Bought this filter to take on a recent trip to the Grand Canyon. The filter has too harsh of and end point for my purposes. In my opinion this would be much better suited for images with specific horizons that are only in the middle of the frame.

Harsh graduation

Much easier than darkening the sky in post-production.

Great for skyline!

I like to shoot  rapids during the summer when it is very bright here so this is the way to get the perfect exposure in every condition.

Tiffen ND .6 filter

I use this for landscapes and it works well.

good filter

Shooting in Montana.  Landscapes, mountains and dramatic cloud formations, few places on earth can match. Use item, -HDR, color and B&W. etc.  Have used to emphase top, bottom, or angles on sides and corners----enhancements not possible with polarizer alone; Usually use tem alone, but have experimented in combination with polarizer---that two can serve some purposes, but most often use gradient filter alone. Over 60yrs experience, this Tiffin is first experience w/ gradient filters. It's become vital.

Tiffen 72mm Color Graduated ND .6 (4x) F

To add depth to your landscape shot and not have the sky blown out or the forground loose shadow detail a graduated filter is a must.

You really need this product, period.

Causes slight vinaigrette when used on a Tokina 12-24mm wide angle lens at 12mm and apertures wider than approx f13.

Nice Filter

Tiffen filters may be on the inexpensive side, but they are built very well.  I have found this and all other Tiffen filters that I've purchased to be as good as the most expensive filters I have in my bag (B+W MC, Hoya MC).

Although this is not a multicoated filter, I haven't run into any problems at all and flare doesn't seem to be any more of an issue with this filter than it is with my multicoated filters.

This filter has a very gradual shift in tint, and this makes it especially easy to use compared with some of the harder-edged grad filters.

Buy this and any other Tiffen filter with confidence and enjoy!

Great Quality

Yes, you can do a lot in photoshop, you always do. However, when you get it right, when you take the shot, the results are always better. ND-Grads are a must. Below a #6, not worth it. Now you can expose/focus on the subject highlights without blowing out the sky.....

Also, tip, most wide angle zooms will "vinette" with multiple filters (UV+ND)get a larger ND with step ring....no need to constantly remove UV
