Helping to balance exposure when working in high-contrast situations, the 150 x 170mm Soft-Edge Graduated ND Filter from LEE Filters is specifically designed to selectively control brightness in difficult lighting. The filter's design places the 0.45, 1.5-stop density at the top of the filter and then transitions to clear by the center of the filter for a gradual, natural appearance. The soft-edge transition between the density and clear areas is well-suited for photographing scenes with a non-distinct horizon line, as well as when working with wide-angle lenses. This filter is constructed from optical resin that is both durable and helps to maintain high clarity, and is compatible with the LEE SW150 filter holder.

Graduated neutral density places the most density at the edge of the filter and tapers to clear by the center of the filter in order to accommodate photographing scenes with large bright areas, such as a daytime sky.

Soft-edge transition between density and clear portions of the filter is suitable for photographing scenes with an indistinct, non-apparent horizon or line between light and shadow, such as a woodland or interior. It is also well-suited for use with wide-angle lenses.

Neutral density 0.45 provides a 1.5-stop reduction in light in selective areas.

Constructed from optical resin for overall clarity and durability.

Compatible for use with the LEE SW150 filter holder.

Included filter pouch protects the filter when not in use.

Q: 4. I'm looking to upgrade from our Panasonic AG-HPX255P to BlackMagic Ursa G2 with this lens. How different would the focal length be between these. I think the Panasonic has a 3.9 to 86mm, this lens has 8.5 to 170mm, right? The zoom would be much tighter, but not a wide when fully zoomed out? Just making sure we don't have to move the camera locations. Thanks for any input.

A: The URSA Broadcast G2 would be the best camera choice from Black Magic for B4 lenses. The Fujinon XA20sx8.5BRM-K3 would be slightly less wide and slightly shorter zoom range. Blackmagic Design URSA Broadcast G2 Camera BH #BLURSABCG2 https://bhpho.to/3M5pMiQ

A: The Fujinon XA20sx8.5BERM-K3 ENG Lens WILL cover a UHD format on the Blackmagic URSA Broadcast, without an adapter or extender. 2/3" Lenses are appropriate for achieving UHD on this camera, as Blackmagic Design has confirmed and as we have tested in our store.
