The Tiffen 4 x 6" 2 Tobacco Soft-Edge Graduated Filter helps to specifically add a warm, brownish-yellow coloration 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 tobacco 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 6" / 101.6 x 152.4mm.

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

2 Density Color Graduated Filter    Tobacco Coloring in Select Areas    Soft-Step Graduation    ColorCore Technology

Provides a warm brownish-yellow coloring to select areas of the image.

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: 4. I bought a Canon SX50HS soon after it came out and loved the superzoom. however, quality was lacking when my better shots were printed 11 X 17 so I have upgraded to a larger sensor Nikon D5500 but need more reach for wildlife shots. I see that this and the yet to be released SIGMA 150 - 600 are both made mainly for full frame cameras and have heard reviewers saying that APS-C frame camera users may experience slow focus with moving subjects and also less quality in their pictures vs full frame camera users so I'm hesitant and could use advise as I'm new to the DSLR. I don't see any other options out there, will this lens give great, good, average or poor results when used for birds in flight on a D5500?
