If you are not using Neutral Density filters, you are missing out on an easy, simple and inexpensive means to improve your photography (and videography if you're shooting DSLR). ND filters allow you to shoot with a wide aperture without over-exposing your images. While you can stop down your lens to compensate for bright lighting, you will increase your depth of field and loose the "bokeh" -background blur - of the wider aperture. An ND filter allows you to shoot with aperture open, maintain a shallow depth of field (desirable for video) keep the details in the highlights and preserve a nice color balance. ND filters can cost $100+ but this Tiffen does a great job a fraction of the cost. I use it for still and video images and I'm very satisfied with the results. At this price, it is a good starting point and my just be enough for you now and in the future.

Tiffen Neutral Density Filters
These filters reduce the amount of light passing through the camera lens without changing the color of the scene. They are especially useful in bright light conditions to help prevent overexposure. Neutral Density filters also allow proper exposure at a wider lens opening for reduced depth-of-field to highlight a key subject by making the foreground and/or background out of focus.
- F-Stop Reduction of 2 (ND4 or ND102)
- Eliminates overly bright, washed-out images
- Balances exposure
- Controls depth-of-field
- Allows slower shutter speeds to produce blurred motion effects

Fun To Use
I bought this ND lens to try to capture the flowing techniques of water and wind. I had to play a little with the shutter speed to get the photos just right, but I had a lot of fun photographing a windy Iowa day. (See my photo under Customer photos here). While I think a .9 would be better for the wind shots, I am very pleased with the results of my first experiment. I can't wait to try it on water. A tripod is a must for these kinds of photos. I am also looking forward to experimenting with panning shots for background blur. The photos I took turned out sharp where needed (Tree trunks). I am very pleased with it and would recommend it to anyone looking for this type of lens. It worked great with my Canon Rebel XT digital SLR.

Si vous cherchez un filtre ND 6 (6 stops) vous pouvez prendre le Haida "ND64"...
Sinon, no comment sur la qualité du filtre, je n'ai pas ouvert l'emballage.
