The Tiffen 5 x 6" Blue 4 Soft Edge Graduated Filter is a soft-edged graduated color filter providing a bluish color across the image, giving a cooling effect for your photographs. The 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. The 4 density provides less of a blue cast than the 5 density filter, but more than the 3 density.

Tiffen filters are 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. This filter measures 5 x 6" / 127 x 152.4mm and features a horizontal orientation; meaning the filter's line of transition runs parallel to the long side of the filter.

Q: 6. I see there's lots of ND options for this. What will be a good recommendation for a first horizon ND filter, let's say for the sea shore and landscapes (Horseshoe Bend in Page AZ)? Thanks.

A: Most of the photos of Horseshoe Bend feature an area of landscape where there is a straight horizon without trees, mountains, or buildings between the bright sky above and the rock formation below. As such, a very hard edge filter attenuating the sky's light by three stops (0.9 ND) such as the LEE Filters 100 x 150mm Very Hard Graduated Neutral Density 0.9 Filter (B&H# LEGND.9VH46) would be ideal for that: https://bhpho.to/3tSwgZs

Q: 10. I notice this filter is not multi coated. I would be using this on the water. Does multi coating make a difference?

A: The multi-coatings on filters allow the filter to reduce glare or flare that would happen internally in the camera mainly between the filter and the sensor. Glare on the water would be caused by unpolarized light outside of the camera from the sun. As such, while I do recommend multi-coated filters, for shoots on water, glass, or foliage, a standard polarized filter would still work for your needs.
