The 6.6 x 6.6" Ultra Cinema Graduated ND Filter from Formatt Hitech uses a rare Earth-mineral coating to create exceedingly neutral NDs. Soft-edge grads are versatile filters used to balance the luminosity of a bright sky with the terrain below. The soft edge makes it easy to place the filter in the scene, especially over undulating horizons (such as mountains). The filters are made from 4mm-thick Schott Superwite glass, and the multicoating is bonded in the middle to increase scratch resistance. Firecrest Filters are neutral across all spectrums, including UV, visible, and infrared.

Firecrest Ultra IRND are carbon-based IRND filters with hyper-neutral color balance which can be used for uniform near infrared filtration allowing your camera's color science to remain untouched. Ultra IRND are equally compatible with ARRI, RED, Blackmagic Design, Canon, Panasonic, and other modern digital cinema cameras allowing the image to be captured as the manufacturer intended.

4mm Cine Firecrest Ultra IRND have the same features of the popular 4mm Cine Firecrest ND. The 4mm Firecrest ND and 4mm Firecrest Ultra IRND both have identical optical performance with the engraving being the only difference.

However, the outer diameter of this filter is 62mm therefore if your lens hood is not wide enough it may not fit with this filter mounted on your lens.
