Overview

The Tiffen 58CGB is a 58mm screw-in graduated color filter that applies a blue tint to the upper portion of the image while leaving the lower half clear. The transition between tinted and clear areas is smooth and gradual, designed to mimic or enhance the look of a deep blue sky without introducing a hard, visible line in the image. This makes it a practical tool for landscape, travel, and outdoor photography where you want to add atmosphere to the sky in a single exposure rather than relying on post-processing adjustments.

Built using Tiffen's ColorCore technology, the blue color is sandwiched between two layers of optical glass rather than applied as a surface coating. This construction method delivers consistent color density across the filter, resists scratching on the color layer, and maintains optical clarity over time. The standard 58mm thread mounts directly to any compatible lens and allows stacking with other filters, though photographers using wide-angle lenses should be mindful of potential vignetting when combining multiple filters. Made in the United States, the 58CGB is part of Tiffen's extensive graduated color filter line and is a straightforward, no-frills option for adding in-camera color effects.
