Tiffen 5 Red Hard-Edge Graduated Filter, 4 x 5.65 Inches, Horizontal Mount | 4565CGR5HH

The sun is dropping fast behind the ridge. You?ve got maybe two minutes to nail the contrast between that burning horizon and the dark canyon below. That?s when the Tiffen 5 Red Hard-Edge Graduated Filter slides into your matte box. It?s a 4 x 5.65 inch, horizontal-mount piece of glass designed to do one thing: bring drama back into your frame ? precisely, without guesswork.

• Hard-edge graduation ? the transition from density to clear glass is sharp, not soft. Ideal when you?ve got a clear, defined horizon line and need a distinct cutoff, like ocean skylines or desert landscapes.
• Red color intensity ? this isn?t a neutral density filter. The red layer saturates skies, warms shadows, and builds mood that?s hard to replicate in post without crushing highlights.
• Horizontal mount orientation ? designed to sit in a standard 4×5.65 inch filter tray system, letting you slide it smoothly into composition.
• Tiffen ColorCore construction ? the glass is laminated and ground flat to eliminate distortion, common with cheaper acrylic-based graduated filters.

This filter is built for the shooter who works on set or on location ? the cinematographer or high-end stills photographer who needs in-camera results, not a project waiting for color grading. If you?re lighting or exposing for a specific magenta-to-orange look, the 5 Red Hard-Edge gives you that punch right at capture. No guessing. No bracketing. Just the scene, exactly as you imagined it.
