Pros & Cons

👍 Pros

  • Features a graduated filter with a distinct hard-edged transition for clear separation of sky and foreground.
  • Provides a 2-stop light reduction, effectively balancing exposure in high-contrast landscape scenes.
  • The darkest part of the filter is at the transition point, specifically designed for managing bright horizons.
  • Offers true-to-life color reproduction with no color cast, ensuring natural and accurate image tones.
  • Made from high definition optical glass with NiSi Nano Coating on both sides for waterproof, anti-reflection, and scratch-resistant properties.
  • Easy to clean, allowing for maintenance of pristine optical quality even after use in challenging environments.
  • Compatible with the NiSi 100mm System and other systems that accommodate 100x150mm filters with 2mm thickness.

👎 Cons

  • The hard-edged transition may not be ideal for landscapes with irregular horizons, potentially creating an unnatural line.
  • The 2-stop density might be too strong or too weak depending on the specific lighting conditions, requiring other filters for varied needs.
  • As a single filter, it does not provide a complete graduated neutral density kit for different light reduction requirements.
  • Its compatibility is limited to 100mm filter systems, meaning it won't fit smaller or larger holders.
  • The 2mm thickness is standard for its size but requires a filter holder that specifically supports this dimension.
