Neutral Density filters reduce the amount of light passing through the camera lens without changing the color of the scene. Especially useful in bright light conditions to help prevent overexposure. Also allows 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. Neutral Density filters eliminate overly bright, washed-out images, balance exposure, control depth-of-field and allow slower shutter speeds to produce blurred motion effects.

I needed this for an outdoor photoshoot so I could keep my aperture wider in blazing sunlight, and it's perfect. No noticeable drop in image quality, solidly built, comes in a nice case, and it'll stay with my kit everywhere I take my camera.

Tiffen ( con Hoya e Genustec) è il TOP dei filtri ND (ed è importante non prendere cinesate che rovinano la ripresa). Questo tiffen, comprato a prezzo stracciato su Amazon Warehouse Deals, non smentisce la sua grande qualità ottica e dei materiali. Comprato per risolvere il problema del Lumix 20 mm f 1,7. E' si luminosissimo, ma non chiude oltre f.16, cioè manca f22, e nelle giornate di sole sovraespone severamente. L'unica (e semplice) soluzione è mettere un ND da 3 stop, e questa marca è consigliatissima

Good quality. Works great and easier than using a variable ND for shooting video.

This filter has worked out great for me. I have only taken it out once and had no real issues and it performed as expected. I experienced NO excess color splash or blurred corners as some users of similar products experience.It did fine on my 24-105 lens and no issues with attaching it to etc.The key to using these filters is to compose your shot first by focusing without the filter then setting it to manual, then attaching the filter and shooting. But the reality is you can still see clearly enough with this filter as this I believe is 2-3 stops down so its not that crazy when it comes to the stop ratio if you are shooting a brightly lit area.Overall I am very pleased with the purchase and will probably seek out Tiffen for my filter needs.

Canon lovers everywhere! If your forte is that of photography, then you ought to get this Tiffen 62mm neutral density 0.9 filter.This a must have filter goes for an average measly $15.99. Great for shooting at wide apertures especially during bright daylights or a prolonged coverage of topography. This neutral density filter is also very useful for panning, rivers and waterfall shots.It prevents the water from looking blurry and misty by reducing the light coming through the lens which slows down the shutter speed thereby reducing the aforementioned blurring thus retaining the color of the subject. It allows one to shoot at f/2.8 with a 180 degree shutter speed at round about 24 FPS (Frames per second) for videos. It is also worth noting that the Tiffen filter doesn’t vignette. To get even more desirable effects, it is advisable to use a tripod.This is because the filter thrusts the shutter speed into several seconds. The filter is also great for producing blurred motion upshots. This can be achieved by slowing the shutter speed. It also reduces out of depth effect that results from wide lens coverage by obscuring the subjects foreground and background. The build quality is immaculate.The filter’s frame is made from metal and the glass is of superb quality which equates to sturdiness. Unlike a filter like Vivitar which is known to at times throw off the cameras white balance leading to purple like images, this filter doesn’t throw off the camera white balance. The good-looking plastic package that comes with the filter acts as a great future storage pack for the filter.Unfortunately this filter is not for everyone. It does not fit on some Sony Camera like the Sony 6. It is also not very dark compared to other neutral density filters. If not handled with care, the Tiffen filter is likely to be scratched. Although this is not an isolated case as most filters suffer from the same as well.This filter is great for bright daylight shots since it doesn’t change the color of the subject. But for prolonged exposure during the daylight, Hoya’s 77mm neutral density does the trick since Tiffen’s filter is not dark enough to stop the image from being over exposed to light. Also, because the filter is not multi-coated, flaring is eminent. But then Tiffen’s 62mm neutral density filter is a worthy filter that is affordable and does what it says it will do.As somebody who shoots on a Canon 5D MKIII and MKII I really must advocate for this $15 (soooo cheap!) upgrade to your photographic experience.

This is quite a well made filter for the price. Works great on my Pentax K-r and K-01 cameras. I also have a Vivitar ND 0.9 in the same size. I haven't had any major problems with the Vivitar either, but it does sometimes throw off the camera's white-balance, making images look purple. Not a big deal, as the purple cast can be removed easily in post-processing, but for a few dollars more, this Tiffen filter avoids the white-balance issue altogether. It is well made, and even with a lot of pixel-peeping, I can't discern any degradation in picture quality. I can even stack both filters (this one and the Viv) for an even stronger effect. Even with both filters stacked, you won't get nice blurry water at the beach on a sunny day. There's just too much light. But at dusk on the beach you can get some great shots. For waterfalls, if you are under the canopy of trees you might get nice blurred water in the daytime, especially if it's an overcast day. One of these days I'll treat myself to a nice 10-stop ND filter, but for now I use the Tiffen 0.9 for moderate darkening and the Tiffen and Viv together for stronger darkening.

Not a bad ND filter at all.I purchased for my Canon 50mm f1.8 to do shoot video. This is absolutely necessary when taking video outside on a DSLR. When your shutter speed is 1/50 (at 24fps, recommended) any sunlight will over expose the video greatly without a ND filter.This filter knocks down the exposure by 3 stops so that you can shoot in daylight easier and get that nice natural color to things. However, even at 3 stops it seems a bit bright on sunny days. I may look for a stronger one.All in all great little filter. Good build quality, nice packaging, solid price. Definitely suggest picking one up if you're just getting into DSLR cinematography.

This review is for the 37 mm filter.I've taken a few pictures of the same scenes with and without the filter to test it.* The filter does cut the amount of light by approximately a factor of 8, which is what it should as a ND 0.9 filter. If you need more, look for a different filter, but this works as advertised.* In images of the same scene, with auto-white balance on, I notice a *very slight* yellow cast. Gimp (freeware version of Photoshop) fixes it easily, and I'm sure I could fix it by fiddling with the camera's white balance.* The filter did come a little dusty, but with no damage.* My filter is held tightly in place, but a few reviews mention it being loose. If it is, you should be able to fix it by tightening the retaining ring.I also tested it with a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The OD is about 0.9 for most of the visible range. It is 1 at 405 nm and drops to 0.8 at 682 nm. The OD increases sharply at shorter wavelengths and decreases sharply at longer wavelengths, which explains the (again, very slight) yellow cast.
