Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of the Cokin P661 Series P Yellow Fluo Graduated Filter Y2?

This filter is designed to selectively apply a yellow fluo tint and graduation to a portion of your image, often used to enhance skies or create specific atmospheric effects.

Is this filter part of a larger system, and what else might I need to use it?

Yes, it is part of the Cokin P Series, which typically requires a separate Cokin P Series filter holder and an adapter ring compatible with your lens.

What are the other colors available in this graduated fluo filter series?

The series includes Graduated Yellow Fluo 1 (P660) & Yellow Fluo 2 (P661), Orange Fluo 1 (P662) & Orange Fluo 2 (P663), Red Fluo 1 (P664) & Red Fluo 2 (P665), Blue Fluo 1 (P666) & Blue Fluo 2 (P667), and Mauve Fluo 1 (P668) & Mauve Fluo 2 (P669).

Can this filter be used to balance exposure between a bright sky and a darker foreground?

While it offers a gradient, its primary function is color enhancement rather than strictly exposure balance; neutral density graduated filters are typically used for exposure compensation.

How does a "graduated" filter work?

A graduated filter transitions from a colored or darkened area to a clear area, allowing you to selectively affect only a part of the image, such as the sky.

👎 Cons

The Cokin P Series system requires an additional filter holder and adapter ring, which are not included with this individual filter.
The "fluo" effect might be too intense or specific for general photography, limiting its everyday use.
Graduated filters can be challenging to position precisely, especially without live view or on-screen guides.

The plastic construction typical of Cokin filters, while lightweight, may be more prone to scratches than glass filters.
