Bring your photography to life with the Tiffen 6 x 6" Twilight 2 Graduated Filter, a highly sought-after tool in the world of professional photography. Renowned for their ability to enhance reality or create captivating illusions, Tiffen Color-Grad filters are among the most extensively utilized filters in the industry.

The Twilight 2 Graduated Filter offers a multitude of applications, from infusing a lackluster sky with vibrant color to altering a specific color within a scene for a unique special effect. Whether you're looking to intensify existing colors, create subtle color drama, or achieve a more balanced exposure in uneven lighting conditions, this filter is your go-to tool.

Tiffen Color-Grads come in a variety of sizes and colors, and are available in soft edge, hard edge, or attenuated gradients. The transition area in soft edge filters ranges from 1/2" to 2" wide before reaching full density, while in hard edge filters, it's approximately 1/4" to 1/2" wide. Attenuated gradients, on the other hand, gradually transition from clear to maximum density across the entire filter.

When using rectangular filters like the 6 x 6" Twilight 2 Graduated Filter, the terms vertical and horizontal are crucial. These refer 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 depends on your subject matter, surroundings, and the type of lens you're using. Telephoto lenses, which utilize a small portion of the filter, are best paired with a hard edge. Conversely, wide-angle lenses, which make objects appear smaller, are ideally suited to a soft edge, as a hard edge gradient could result in a harsh straight line. For subtle blending with irregular-shaped subjects or unusual lighting, soft edges and attenuators are the perfect choice.

Elevate your photography with the Tiffen 6 x 6" Twilight 2 Graduated Filter, and experience the difference in color, balance, and drama.
