Product Description

The Tiffen Digital ND Filter Kit is a complete set of filters to help you get
better shots in bright light as well as assist you with some special effect
images.
Neutral density filters have several uses and offer the possibility to achieve
otherwise unachievable results. They enable the shooter to adjust exposure
without affecting color balance. ND filters appear gray and reduce the amount of
light reaching the film.
Determining which neutral density filter yields ideal results for any given
lighting situation takes knowledge, experience, and a collection of such
filters. Speaking generally, the 2-stop value (ND 0.6) effectively compensates
average situations.
Neutral Density Filters Have Four Main Uses:
- To enable slow shutter speeds to be used, especially with high-speed
films, to record movement in subjects such as waterfalls, clouds, or cars
- To decrease depth of field by allowing wider apertures to be used, which
helps separate subjects from their background
- To decrease the effective ISO of high-speed film (above ISO 400) and
allow it to be used outdoors in bright situation
- To allow cine and video cameras (which have fixed shutter speeds) to
film subjects such as snow, sand, or other bright scenes that could cause
overexposure
