The 6.6 x 6.6" Hard Edge Graduated 0.9 ND Filter is a versatile tool with a multitude of applications. It can inject a burst of color into a dull sky, alter a specific color in a scene for a unique special effect, or amplify the existing color to create subtle yet impactful color drama. Moreover, it's an excellent solution for achieving a more balanced exposure in situations with uneven lighting.

Tiffen Color-Grads are available in a comprehensive range of sizes and colors, catering to a wide array of photographic needs. They are crafted with either a soft edge, where the transition area is between 1/2" to 2" wide before reaching full density, or a hard edge, where the transition area is approximately 1/4" to 1/2" wide before reaching full density. Special order attenuated gradients are also available, where the transition area spans the entire filter, starting clear and reaching maximum density at the opposite end.

The choice between a "hard" edge or "soft" edge Tiffen Color-Grad largely depends on the subject matter, its surroundings, and the type of lens used. Telephoto lenses utilize a smaller portion of the filter, hence a hard edge is recommended for long lenses as a soft edge may get lost in the image. Conversely, wide-angle lenses make objects appear smaller, making a soft edge more suitable for short focal lengths as a hard edge gradient may appear as a harsh straight line. For subtle blending with irregular-shaped subjects or unusual lighting, soft edges and attenuators are the ideal choice.
