Graduated ND Filter A graduated ND (Neutral Density) filter is a type of photographic filter that is clear on one side and gradually darkens towards the other side, creating a smooth transition between the two. These filters are primarily used in landscape photography to balance the exposure between the bright sky and the darker foreground.
By positioning the dark portion of the filter over the brighter area (usually the sky) and the clear portion over the darker area (such as the landscape), photographers can reduce the overall contrast in the scene, preventing overexposure in the sky while properly exposing the foreground. Graduated ND filters come in various strengths and sizes to accommodate different lighting conditions and lenses. |
