The Tiffen 4 x 5.65" 2 Skyfire Graduated Filter helps to specifically add a unique orange to yellow gradient to skies and other bright areas of an image while allowing a portion of the image to remain neutrally colored. The filter's coloring is densest at the edge and tapers to clear by the middle, with a soft-edged transition between the density and clear areas. The 2 color density provides less skyfire coloration than the 3 density, but more than the 1 density filter.

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. It measures 4 x 5.65" / 101.6 x 143.5mm.

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

2 Density Color Graduated Filter    Orange to Yellow Gradient    Soft-Step Graduation    ColorCore Technology

Provides a unique orange to yellow gradient across half of the filter plane.

Graduated filter design keeps a portion of the image neutral, resulting in a more realistic look while allowing for the sky or other bright areas to take on the color of the density.

Q: 7. WILL IT WORK WITH CANON EOS 70D?

A: I use this lens on my Canon 70D... it works great. The combination works best with lots of light. The focus hunts quite a bit in low light, so I manually set focus in those situations. It's a bit heavy, but is a great lens for the money!

Q: 8. Is this lens AF or only manual? I have D750. Do any of the users can tell me if there are AF issues?

A: I use it with a D610 and it's on my camera more than any lens when shooting wildlife. I've had it since it first was released. Excellent lens!!! Focus is really good for such a large range lens.

Q: 9. What is the minimum length of the lens (e.g. at 150mm)? I want to know what size holster I need for the camera body (D610) + lens to fit in it

A: The Tamron SP 150-600mm f/5-6.3 Di VC USD Lens and Filter Kit for Nikon F is 10.15 in length. If you are looking for holsters that would hold the camera and lens, I would recommend either the Think Tank Photo Digital Holster 30 V2.0 (Black), B&H # THDH30, or the Manfrotto Pro-Light Access H-18 Camera Holster, B&H # MAPLAH18. The MindShift Gear Multi-Mount Holster 30 (Green and Gray), B&H # MIMMH30, would also work, but would be a slightly snug fit.

Q: 10. Focus lag / performance?I had originally planned on getting this lens when I sold my Tamron 200-500mm last year. The focus performance on that lens was not good and I was hoping the new Tamron would be a better performer. I've read a lot that in anything other than bright sunlight that the new Tamron does not perform well acquiring focus.What is your experience with this lens? are you happy with it? why or why not?I'll be using a D7200.I have been leaning toward the Sigma 150-600mm Sport version. I'm confident that it is well built and a great performer but its twice the price and a lot heavier.If you've used both lenses please let me know your thoughts.Thank you,Steve

A: I'm very happy with the Tamron 150-600. I use it on my D300 & D800 and it focus as fast as or faster than my Nikkor lenses. You will love it.
