Hi what is the difference in exposure between the graduated regions of the filter ? 2 stops ?

I get just under 2 stops maybe 1 2/3 stop say without 5.6 with 10 I really have used this filter alot I love tiffen filters high end made in the USA

Yes I believe that it is about 2 stops. This filter is not "graduated" where it it's clear and goes to ND across the glass. The whole glass is ND and dark. It does very well cutting down some of the light and allowing you to use a slower shutter speed. I have been happy with it so far.

There are 2 pieces, I was used to 3. I still have to use a very small part of an old filter to fit to the end.

Thank you so much for the information. I bought some 58mm filters and an adapter and have held them in front. I will look for some 37mm so I can do your workaround. Thank you for the information.

These filters are threaded Male by female, so one end has 52mm male threads (camera lens side), and the other end is 52mm female threads ( so you can stack another filter in front for special effects)

The size will be the size of lenses filter diameter. The hood should be checked at various focal lengths to determine if image cut-off occurs.

I just did a photo shoot of sunset over Anclote Key in the gulf of Mexico using a the Tiffen ND 0.6. amd ISO 100 with a shutter speed of 320. When the sun was nearly down, the light dropped off and I removed the filter and shot a few more frames which gave me a comparison of filter vs no filter. The colors were "richer" (more saturated) with the filter. I used a Canon T4i and a 24-105MM f4.0L lens.

I do a lot of time exposure waterfall pictures and I would be lost without it. In some cases as with all variables there is central and uneven darkening. Use numbered ND filters to over come this. http://fineartamerica.com/profiles/gene-rooney.html?tab=artworkgalleries

Hello. Sadly after buying it I noticed that it is inappropriate to use filters, leaves a shadow around the image

This product was for my grandaughter's photo processing class so I can't answer it. I will forward this to her and maybe she can respond. Sorry...

Do I put the pre-filter on the inside or outside of the regular filter? I don't see it written in the online manual..

Hello. I'm not sure what you're referring to with the "extinction ratio" of the filter. If you are perhaps referring to the filter factor - i.e. the amount of f-stop exposure compensation when using the filter with a manual exposure camera or light meter - I believe for this particular filter that value is 1. Tiffen has a small section on Filter Factors you may find helpful here: http://www.tiffen.com/tiffen_edu_camera_filters.html Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist with.

I tried just now with both a red and green laser. The red passed right through. The green was greatly diminished but still passed through, just not very much. So, I doubled the filter - 2 sheets worth and the green did not pass through at all. However it reflected back towards the laser as if bouncing off a mirror.

I am not sure which pieces you are talking about. Is it the Neutral Density Filters, which slow your exposure.

This just confuses me more, and others too I'm sure. Just how many F-stops, for God's sake! ok, 3 F-stops of light. Or, from 1/500th of a second to 1/60th, which doubles the light 3 times, which is equivalent to 3 F-stops of light. Is that right? I want to create some blur effects in an indoor lighting situation. Todays digital camera should just have lower ISOs in place of having to buy these filters. If they can get it to ISO 25, then why not even lower? The grain wouldn't have to get smaller, but it would just need to cut down on the light.

I can't answer your question. I will say that these filters have disappointed me in that after a number of uses the caps wouldn't fit properly(too loose) and therefore I stopped using them.

I haven't been messing around much, but with my 18-55 mm I got a bit better results, and of course, playing with the filter itself to find the best position for what I am shooting. the filters seem to be a very subtle change. I have had darker gradient filters in the past, and still have them, but they don't fit on my Rebel.

Adding to Klee's answer: there are 5 correction Filters:1/2 CTB (3200K to 4300K) [1/2 f/stop loss]Full CTO (6500K to 3200K) [1 f/stop loss]1/2 CTO (6500K to 3800K) [1/2 f/stop loss]1/4 CTO (6500K to 4600K) [1/2 f/stop loss]Plus Green (cc30 Green) [1/2 f/stop loss]Heavy Frost Diffusion [2 f/stop loss]
