This 4-stop, 100 x 150mm Soft-Edge Graduated IRND Filter for Sq100 Filter Holder System from Hoya is ideal for use in landscape photography, where the scenery and horizon tend to have complex or uneven structures, allowing the luminosity of bright areas to be balanced with the dark areas in the image. This filter makes it possible to darken the sky by 4-stops for more color and details, while retaining foreground image details. The filter's rectangular 100 x 150mm format allows the density separation line to be placed anywhere in the image area.

Made from toughened glass, this filter is designed to endure harsh conditions during travel and adventure. The IRND nano coating for both sides of the clear optical filter glass does not only remove IR contamination, but also creates a truly neutral color balance through its applied ACCU-ND technology. This prevents any noticeable color cast to images. Additionally, its water repellent and anti-reflection coating drastically minimizes the risk of random light reflections while increasing the light transmittance. It can be used in conjunction with other filters for customized imaging.
