This 100 x 150mm Red Diamond Horizon Line Graduated ND Filter from Haida is compatible with the Haida 100 or 100-Pro Filter Holder. It can be applied to darken the sky, specifically along the horizon during a sunrise or sunset, while allowing for a normal, unaffected exposure in the other regions of the image.

This filter achieves its effect with a 1.2 band of optical density across its center region that provides up to a 4-stop reduction in light from entering a lens. The band of density extends approximately 1.1" in both vertical directions before tapering to clear below and above, with hard-edged lines of transition before the clear areas. The clear areas then extend approximately 2.5" until they meet the top and bottom edges of the filter.

A narrow 1.2 band of density with larger clear areas directly above and below it allows the filter to specifically match the positioning of the sun when it is at, or immediately above, the horizon. In such instances, the sun will appear closer to the center of an image as opposed to the upper edge, and an increase in brightness is created that is much more prominent on both sides of the sun than either above or below it. This pattern of brightness corresponds to the density pattern on the filter. The hard-edged lines of transition in this filter are useful for images that feature horizons with a hard transition between the sky and land.

Haida Red Diamond filters are constructed from shock-resistant optical glass. To prevent internal ghosting and reflections, while further enhancing clarity and color fidelity, each glass surface includes 10 layers of anti-reflective nano coatings. An additional 10 scratch-resistant hydrophobic coatings further protect this filter's substrate and result in an improved beading effect when its surfaces come in contact with water or oil, allowing for more efficient cleaning. Additionally, Haida Red Diamond filters feature rounded edges for easier placement within a compatible filter holder slot.

A metallic case for storage and transport is included, as well as a light-blocking gasket. This gasket forms a seal that is intended to prevent stray light, which could have unwanted effects on exposure, from coming in between the filter and the lens behind it.

Q: 1. Can this be used with BMPCC? Thanks!

A: The E-Image Horizon Pro 3-Axis Handheld Gimbal Stabilizer is too small for the footprint of the BMPCC.

Q: 2. is it allowed as carry on at airports ?

A: This bag would be too big for carry on.

Q: 3. Is the lower camera portion of the Powder larger than the Whistler 350II?

A: They are about the same as far as holding camera gear.

Q: 4. Can I take this as my carry on on an airplane?

A: The f-stop TILOPA 50L DuraDiamond Travel & Adventure Camera Backpack Bundle (Cypress Green) is too large to use as a carry-on bag. Most airlines will not accept bags larger than 22 x 14 x 9”.

A: The shoulder straps aren't very thick, so the Peak Design Capture Clip will work for this backpack.

Q: 6. Will temperature effect function, below zero or direct summer sun?

A: The Wild Iron Squish Horizon Correction Camera Head is engineered for extreme environments and temperatures from −40 to 100 °C (−40 to 212 °F) while still maintaining its useful properties.

Q: 7. Does it come with a Camera Compartment (adjustable dividers)? Camera Compartment size please?

A: Yes. The Lowepro Powder Backpack 500 AW has a camera compartment with adjustable dividers.

Q: 8. I am 5'1", female would this be too big?

A: Yes, it would have to say this bag would be too big and top heavy for you.

Q: 9. Will this fit on a MindShift Gear BackLight 26L Backpack?

A: It will not fit snugly, It will fit but will be about 4" too long.

Q: 10. does it fit in 600gma1+24-70gm-12-24gm70-200gm

A: Unfortunately the Sony FE 600mm f/4 GM OSS Lens will not fit on f-stop PRO ICU (Black, Large) or f-stop PRO ICU (Black, X-Large) compatible with f-stop TILOPA 50L DuraDiamond Travel & Adventure Camera Backpack Bundle (Anthracite Black). The rest of the equipment's you mention will fit in the bag pack with the bundle ICU.
