  • Balanced exposures in high-contrast scenes with fixed 3-stop graduated reduction

55mm Hard Graduated ND8 Filter

This 55mm hard graduated ND8 filter reduces light by three stops across half the frame, balancing exposure when the foreground is darker than the background. It suits landscape photographers who need precise tonal control in high-contrast scenes. The hard graduation creates a defined transition for clean horizon lines.

Three-Stop Reduction with 20-Layer Coating

The fixed three-stop density handles bright skies over darker terrain without blowing highlights. Twenty nano-coating layers repel water, oil and scratches while maintaining high light transmission and a consistent transmission curve. German SCHOTT B270 glass delivers industry-leading transmittance for accurate colour rendition.

Ultra-Slim Double-Threaded Design

The ultra-slim rim minimises vignetting on wide-angle lenses and allows stacking with other 55mm filters thanks to front and rear threads. It replaces basic graduated filters that lack multi-coating or use lower-grade glass. The upgrade is worth it when flare resistance and colour neutrality are critical.

Questions about this item

Will the 55mm thread fit on my existing 55mm lens without vignetting?

The ultra-slim rim is designed to minimise vignetting on wide-angle lenses while maintaining the standard 55mm thread pitch.

How can I verify the 3-stop reduction is accurate after mounting the filter?

Meter a bright sky through the clear half, then through the graduated half; the exposure should shift by three full stops.

Does the box include a protective case or do I need to buy one separately?

The filter ships in a protective case; no separate purchase is required for storage.
