Tjis 3 x 4" Glass ND Filter from Cavision reduces the amount of light entering the lens without affecting color. It is used primarily when the light level exceeds that which the film stock or video CCD can handle. This is often the case when shooting on a sunny day in a location featuring an abundance of light reflection such as a desert, ocean, or snowy landscape. If a reduction in depth of field is desired, the neutral density filter can help achieve this because it allows you to open the lens aperture further without overexposing your image.
