Whether you're looking to inject vibrant color into a dull sky, alter a specific color in a scene for a unique special effect, or balance exposure in uneven lighting situations, this filter is your go-to tool. The Skyfire 2 Soft Edge Graduated Filter is designed to provide a smooth transition between highlights and shadows, resulting in a more visually pleasing final product.

This filter is crafted from high-quality glass, ensuring durability and accurate color reproduction. It's available in a variety of sizes and colors, offering versatility for a range of photographic scenarios.

The soft edge graduation style of this filter is particularly suited for wide-angle lenses, as it allows for subtle blending with irregular-shaped subjects or unusual lighting. The transition area in a soft edge filter is typically between 1/2" to 2" wide before reaching full density, depending on the size of the filter. This ensures that the gradient doesn't appear as a hard straight line, even with short focal lengths.

For telephoto lenses, Tiffen also offers hard edge filters, where the transition area is approximately 1/4" to 1/2" wide before reaching full density. This is recommended for long lenses as a soft edge would get lost in the image.

In the world of rectangular-shaped filters, the terms vertical and horizontal are crucial. These terms refer to the position of the filter in relation to the camera when the grad line is horizontal.
