Pros & Cons
👍 Pros
- Graduated tint allows selective coloring of skies or backgrounds without affecting the entire image
- CR-39 organic glass provides excellent optical transmission with minimal image degradation
- Lightweight construction makes it easy to carry and handle in the field
- High shock resistance reduces the risk of cracking or chipping compared to standard glass filters
👎 Cons

- The blue graduated effect is a fixed color density with no adjustability
- Plastic-based CR-39 material can scratch more easily than multi-coated optical glass filters
Frequently Asked Questions
What filter system does the Cokin A122 belong to?
It is part of Cokin's A Series (also known as the Creative Filter System), which uses a modular holder that slides square or rectangular filters in front of your lens.
What material is this filter made from?
The A122 is manufactured from CR-39 organic glass, a material originally developed for the optical lens industry that offers excellent light transmission and high resistance to impact.
How does a graduated filter differ from a solid color filter?
A graduated filter transitions from full color at one edge to clear at the opposite edge, allowing you to tint only part of the image — such as the sky — while leaving the rest of the frame unaffected.
Is the Cokin A122 compatible with other filter series holders?
No, the A122 is sized specifically for the Cokin A Series holder. It will not fit the larger P Series or Z-Pro holders without an adapter.
