A Neutral Density (ND) filter is used to reduce the amount of light that passes through the camera lens without changing the color of the scene. This allows for more control over the exposure of photographs, particularly in bright lighting conditions, and can help to prevent overexposure.
The Tiffen 4.5" ND filter allows photographers to shoot with wider lens openings, thereby reducing the depth-of-field. This results in a more pronounced subject focus, with a blurred foreground and/or background, which is particularly useful for portrait and artistic photography.
ColorCore technology is Tiffen's proprietary process where the filter material is permanently bonded between two pieces of optical glass. The glass is ground flat to extremely tight tolerances, ensuring high-quality performance and consistency in filtering effects.
The Tiffen 4.5" ND filter is designed to be compatible with cameras that can accommodate a 4.5" round filter. It's important to check your camera's specifications or lens accessory requirements to ensure proper fit and compatibility.
A Neutral Density filter like the Tiffen 4.5" ND typically does not affect a camera's autofocus function. However, due to reduced light entering the lens, some cameras may experience slower focusing in lower light conditions when using a high-density filter.
