Used Tiffen 4x5.65" Water White Glass IR ND2.7 Filter

Where precision and quality meet, the Tiffen 4x5.65" Neutral Density (2.7) Infrared Color Core Glass Filter stands out as a high-quality, durable, and reliable tool for photographers and videographers. This innovative filter, appearing gray, is designed to effectively reduce the amount of light reaching the film, allowing for more control over exposure and the ability to capture stunning images in various lighting conditions.

Unlike standard neutral density filters, this Tiffen filter is specifically engineered to address the challenges of high-definition photography. The sensitivity of imaging sensors to infrared light can cause color shifts, a critical factor in digital photography. This filter minimizes this issue by reducing the amount of infrared light that enters the lens, while still allowing visible light to pass through.

The Tiffen 4x5.65" Neutral Density (2.7) Infrared Color Core Glass Filter is a non-coated filter, meaning it does not affect the color balance of the image. This is particularly important when dealing with the CCD or CMOS of a digital camera, which is inherently susceptible to infrared contamination. Even when manufacturers attempt to reduce this problem by adding an infrared absorbing filter on top of the image sensor, these filters often do not have a sharp cutoff at the infrared wavelengths, leading to compromises in image quality.

However, with the Tiffen 4x5.65" Neutral Density (2.7) Infrared Color Core Glass Filter, you can confidently capture images without worrying about excluding visible red wavelengths or dealing with the issues of infrared contamination. This filter is especially effective when using denser grades of neutral density filters, making it an essential tool for any photographer or videographer seeking to enhance their image quality and control over their exposure settings.
