Tiffen 43ND6 43mm Neutral Density 0.6 2-Stop Filter (Gray)
The Tiffen 43mm Neutral Density 0.6 Filter is a solid ND filter with a 4x filter factor that provides a 2 stop exposure reduction. Its 0.6 density creates a darkening of the entire image, allowing you to photograph with a wider aperture or slower shutter speed than normally required. By slowing your exposure time or increasing your aperture, you are able to control depth of field and convey movement more easily. Neutral density filters do not affect the coloration of the image and are ideal for pairing with other filters. This filter is made using ColorCore technology, a process that involves laminating the filter substrate between 2 pieces of optical glass, grinding flat to a tolerance of 1/10,000th of an inch, and then mounting to precision metal rings. 0.6 neutral density filter darkens the image, allowing you to photograph with a longer shutter speed or wider aperture than normally required. Providing a 2 stop exposure reduction, this filter allows you to control depth of field and convey movement more easily. Filter does not affect coloration of the image and is ideal for use with other filters. 43mm front filter threads allow for use with other filters. Plastic filter case for storage and transport.

I was actually able to get useable footage on an outdoors day in bright sunlight! It was painful changing shutter speed and aperture to the extremes just to get useable video footage. I would recommend getting a stronger one or multiple if shooting at really wide apertures, I was able to use this at f-8 (without it I would have to shoot at like f-16, which makes lens imperfections such as dust visible). So if you want a really dramatic bokeh, get more of these, but overall the 3 stop is very versatile.

Bought this to work with my Sony 300mm. Won’t fit in the lens though. I think it’s more on Sony but sure would be nice if they designed it for the Sony as well. I could file the metal ring to get it to fit. But to many variables for that.

I use this for DSLR video and time lapse photography. It allows for longer shutter speeds, and helps keep aperture in ideal range for sharpness, motion blur, or shallow depth of field. Also, the filter worked well without any magenta haze. For video it really balances out the contrast in harsh daylight shooting, making it easier to post process. As for clarity, it has no noticeable decline of sharpness or clarity. Also the ND helps protect the lens like a UV but with a function, and the non-coated glass is real easy to clean in the field.Cons: it does add a very very small amount of greenish tint which is easy to fix in post processing and video editing. It can be stacked with a polarizer but there will be vignette which is easy to fix in photo processing, but more ... MoreI use this for DSLR video and time lapse photography.

It does the job well, and is simple to use. And the negatives are easy to fix. I chose this over a variable because 3 stops is ideal for what I do. And, I wanted a filter that is easy and fast to calculate exposure adjustments in manual mode. Also, I wanted higher quality images without the associated X problem when using Variable NDs at the extreme ends.

I purchased 1 and 2 stop copies of the Tiffen 82mm ND in hopes of adding some finer exposure control to my set of NiSi 82mm NDs (3, 6, and 10 stops). Unfortunately, these Tiffen filters have a green cast that the NiSi filters do not. The 1 stop filter isn't that bad, but the 2 stop was obviously green the moment I took it out of the package. I've included a simple comparison demonstrating this. I've owned a 4 stop Tiffen ND filter once before and, though I wasn't as picky about color then, I do recall it having a green tint as well. I've decided not to cheap out on Tiffen NDs again. My variable ND has better color accuracy than these.
I'll have to think twice about buying a Tiffen filter again. I already owned a 72mm .9 filter which is excellent. I bought the 82mm size for a new lens expecting indentical glass, however they two are completely different - see my included photos. The description on the filters is the same. The filter case is the same. But the glass is totally different. The filter arrived a day before an important job and I am really disappointed I couldn't use it, and wasn't able to source a replacement in time. Thankfully B&H accepted a return of the item, although I'll never get back my time wasted on emailing, packaging, and scheduling a courier.
I purchased this filter as my very first ND filter, so I could try my hand at long exposures. I love how it makes waterfalls/water look! I will have to get higher stop filters though, because it does struggle a bit with high-noon sun exposures. Very impressed overall though, and will probably stick with Tiffen filters in the future!
These 40.5 neutral density filters go on several lightweight large format lenses which take 40.5 filters. They are used when backpacking with a very light wooden field camera and a lightweight carbon fiber tripod. The goal is to have a large format system which weighs less than 10 pounds including film/holders and accessories. Several 40.5 glass filters can equal the weight of just one larger glass filter. Weight, versatility, and durability are my keys to backpacking with 4x5. The neutral density filter gives you more control over exposure by allowing for slower shutter speeds which is useful in a variety of situations.
I take hundreds of pictures outdoors and use neutral density filters on snowy days and during sunny days on and around the water. If you shoot video, you definitely need a neutral density filter. This filter is good for video on days when it's not super bright out, and I use it quite a bit for wildlife videos on Youtube. For bright sunny days, you'll need a higher density filter.
I am using this on a Pentax 1 degree Spotmeter, that I use with a pair of Summicron's on leica m4 and m4-2 bodies. Max Shutter on the leica is 1/1000. F-stops max out at f22 If I shoot ASA 400 film it's hard to get a decent range on shutter speeds and f-stops on bright days (say EV 17 and higher), So I use ND filters to bring in a better range. I use this filter on the meter. I have two NDs (ND1 and ND2) for the Pentax and two (of the same) for the Summicrons. So far it seems to work well. A little awkward but doable. There a lot more I could say, but I may run out of character allotment, I'll keep it simple.
We have always used Tiffen filters. They are accurate and consistant quality. I have been shooting video and motion picture film professionally since 1976 and Tiffen has always been the quality standard. I recently bought two sets of Tiffen nd filters to go with a newly purchased Nikon D810. One set in 77mm and one set in 52mm to cover both old style prime Nikon lenses and the new 24-120 f4 zoom that we bought with the camera. We now have nd.3 .6 .9 1.2 sets for each size lens front. These two filter sets cover most any lighting situation with any lens at most any iris we choose. These are everyday tools that hold up well over time. In short buy Tiffen they are "THE GOOD STUFF"
