Tiffen 6.6x6.6" Low Contrast 3 Glass Filter

Are you a professional photographer struggling to manage contrast in bright, sunlit exteriors The Tiffen 6.6x6.6" Low Contrast 3 Glass Filter is your solution. This high-quality, durable filter is designed to balance the exposure between highlights and shadows, preventing severe under or over-exposure.

The Low Contrast filter works by creating a subtle amount of localized flare near highlight areas within your image. This innovative technique effectively reduces contrast by gently lightening nearby shadow areas, while leaving the highlights almost unchanged.

For those instances when lighter shadows are not desired, the Soft Contrast feature of this filter comes into play. It includes a light-absorbing element that, without exposure compensation, reduces contrast by subtly darkening highlights.

The mild flare produced from bright highlights can also be used as a creative lighting effect, adding an extra layer of versatility to this professional-grade filter.

The Tiffen 6.6x6.6" Low Contrast 3 Glass Filter is not just a tool, but an award-winning innovation. Tiffen was honored with a Technical Achievement Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences for the ingenious design of this popular Motion Picture and TV filter.

This filter utilizes surrounding ambient light, not just light in the image area, to evenly lighten shadows throughout your shot. It's the perfect tool for situations where contrast control is needed without any other effect on sharpness or highlight flare being apparent.

The Tiffen Low Light Ultracontrast filters are available in grades from 1/8 to 5, with the higher number indicating a greater effect. This 6.6x6.6" Low Contrast 3 Glass Filter is a versatile and effective tool for any photographer looking to enhance their image quality and control contrast with precision.
