Tiffen 3-Stop Neutral Density Filter (6.6 x 6.6 Inches)

Tiffen 3-Stop Neutral Density Filter (6.6 x 6.6 Inches) | 6666ND9

Outdoor commercial shoots and creative studio work often bump into the same problem with bright mid-day sun: even at your fastest shutter speed or smallest aperture, highlights blow out and you lose detail. A neutral density filter solves that. By evenly reducing the light hitting your lens, it lets you keep your exposure balanced without changing your color grade. That’s where this Tiffen comes in.

• A 3-stop density is a practical everyday choice ? enough reduction to slow your shutter for motion blur along a stream or open your aperture in sunlight for a shallower depth of field, without turning your viewfinder into a tunnel.
• At 6.6 x 6.6 inches, the square resin format fits standard matte box systems and drop-in filter holders used with cinema lenses and larger still rigs, giving you consistent neutral density across the frame.
• Tiffen’s ColorCore process laminates the filter material between optical glass, so it stays optically flat and the anti-reflection coatings minimize unexpected flare in your highlights.
• You’ll use this same filter for both video and stills ? since it doesn’t shift color temperature, you don’t have to rebalance your white balance when you swap between projects.

If you shoot outdoors regularly, this filter is a direct way to keep your composition options open in harsh light.
