The 5-stop, 4 x 5.65" Tiffen Hard-Edge (Horizontal Orientation) Graduated ND Filter is a graduated neutral density filter that helps to specifically darken skies and other bright areas of the image. The filter is densest at the edge and tapers to clear by the middle, with a hard-edged line of transition between the density and clear areas. Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image and the 1.5 density provides a 5 stop reduction in light from entering the lens.

This filter is made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass and grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch. This filter measures 4 x 5.65" / 101.6 x 143.5mm.

Note: A horizontal orientation filter's line of transition runs parallel to the long side of the filter.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can this work with Canon R3?

A: No, the SmallRig Rotatable Horizontal-to-Vertical Mount Plate Kit for Select Canon R-Series Cameras cannot mount to the Canon EOS R3 because the battery grip is in the way.

Q: 2. I am doing 1:1 macro and need ultimate stability for overhead shooting. Can this work on my Manfrotto 055CX legs with a Sony 90mm macro and Sony a7riii?

A: The VH-60 is big, but it will fit the 055CX (I have this tripod). It is reasonably stable, I used it with a nikon d500 + 70-200 f2.8 for low level mounted on an upside down Acratech long lens head which in turn was mounted on an Acratech Ultimate head. There are limits and this will depend on the tripod (I use my RRS TVC-33 for greater stability) and a sandbag counterweight. Do not overtighten the locking handle, mine broke easily (Fisol were great and sent a replacement).
