Tiffen 77mm 4X Neutral Density Lens - Great Filter for Photos & Video

I take hundreds of pictures outdoors and use neutral density filters on snowy days and during sunny days on and around the water. If you shoot video, you definitely need a neutral density filter. This filter is good for video on days when it's not super bright out, and I use it quite a bit for wildlife videos on Youtube. For bright sunny days, you'll need a higher density filter.

I have never bought a neutral density filter from this brand. I was a little worried at first. But the product that came was just as great as any of the other ones that I bought. Very happy with my purchase

The filter you need

Those filter helped me a lot filming in the daytime. I didn’t have overexposed footage which was the reason I bought in the first place, without it I had recorded footage that I barely saved. This filter took care of that with no problem.

Great filter

A must for landscape photography. I used this filter on my last trip to Glacier National Park and the result was exceptional. Set the camera on Aperture Priority and shoot away. Eliminate glare and let's all the colors in.

Great filter

Good value. I used it on an extremely sunny day and produced a great image. It also had the benefit of providing around a 2 stop reduction in light giving more flexibility.

Great filter for a great price

I would recommend this filter. Works as expected and is great quality. Unbeatable for the price. Only 4 stars instead of 5 because it is very hard to remove from the lense.

You need one of these in your bag

If you're not sure why the above title is true, put this filter on your wish list and go find out; the web is filled with tutorials on how to use one. The things that an ND filter lets you do with your camera you simply cannot do any other way are, with a measure of creativity and patience, pretty amazing. One tip: get the Xume adapter/filter rings for whatever lens you think you will use this filter on most. It's nearly impossible to compose your shot with the filter in place, and the Xume system lets you easily place and remove the filter while you are setting up your shot. Tiffen makes some of the best filters on the market; yes, you can pay a lot more, but I would challenge anyone to prove that a ND four-stop filter does a better job than this one. Highly recommended.

Film Shooter

I use the ND filters when using color film.I load up with ISO 400 or 800 film instead of pushing or pulling the color film. Color film is touchy. I collect film cameras, 53 so far in all. Don't have enough ND filters to go around.

Tiffen Quality Always Top-Drawer

I have used Tiffen filters for years and find them consistenly very good. These are no exception and I have used their Neutral Denity filters in my travel photography. They give excellent results.

so far so good

I'm using the 3-stop 62mm ND filter for video and so far it works well. No noticeable color shifts or loss of sharpness. Only complaint is that there's no convenient case to carry it so I had to use one from a different filter.

Works as advertised

Works as expected. I use it on a Tamron 70-200 2.8 lens. I photograph motocross racing’. I like using a shutter speed of 200 to show the wheels turning. I can use a wide aperture to defocus the background with this with this ND filter.

Great filter

By noelskilz

Great solid filter - I use these for shooting weddings in the middle of the day in full sun. They work great to allow me to use a shallow depth of field and fill flash at full power to reduce shadows

Puts real colors back!!

By BRYAN E.

Puts the true colors back into each picture. Your pictures can look just as real as if you were looking in polarized sunglasses. After trying this filter, I bought one for all of my lenses.

Are you seeking to enhance your photography skills and capture stunning images with perfect exposure and depth of field Look no further than the Tiffen 72mm 1.2 Solid Neutral Density Filter. This high-quality and durable filter offers a 4-stop exposure reduction, enabling you to utilize a wider aperture or slower shutter speed than typically required.

The 1.2 density of this versatile filter facilitates a comprehensive darkening of your entire image, providing you with greater control over the depth of field and the ability to convey movement more effectively. Unlike some alternatives, this reliable neutral density filter does not alter the coloration of your image, making it an ideal companion for other filters in your photography toolkit.

Crafted with Tiffen's signature ColorCore technology, this filter is meticulously constructed by laminating the filter substrate between two pieces of optical glass. This substrate is then ground flat to a remarkable tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, ensuring a flawless, distortion-free view. The filter is finally mounted to precision metal rings, reinforcing its durability and longevity.

Whether you're a professional photographer or a passionate hobbyist, the Tiffen 72mm 1.2 Solid Neutral Density Filter is an essential tool for achieving beautifully exposed and visually striking images.
