  • Multi-coated surface minimises reflections and glare to preserve colour fidelity and contrast
  • 150x170mm glass fits compatible filter holders for secure, versatile landscape use

Purpose and audience

The Haida NanoPro MC 150x170mm Hard Grad ND 1.2X (16) filter is designed for landscape and outdoor photographers who need precise exposure control across bright horizons. Its hard-edged gradient transitions from dense to clear glass, making it suited to scenes with a defined horizon line. Photographers seeking a filter for soft or irregular horizons will find the hard transition less adaptable to those conditions.

Optical quality and handling

Professional-grade optical glass with multi-coating minimises reflections and glare while preserving colour fidelity and contrast. The Nano multicoating resists dirt, smudges and scratches, keeping the surface clean during field use. The 150x170mm rectangular format fits compatible filter holders for secure mounting.

Behaviour under sustained use

The 1.2X (16) density delivers a consistent 4-stop light reduction, enabling wider apertures or slower shutter speeds for creative motion blur or depth-of-field effects during extended shooting sessions. Multi-coated glass maintains optical clarity and colour neutrality over time, resisting degradation from repeated cleaning and environmental exposure. The hard gradient retains its defined transition without shifting, ensuring reliable exposure balance throughout long-duration landscape work.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 150x170mm Hard Grad ND 1.2X filter and what step do people often miss?

Slide the rectangular glass into a compatible 150mm filter holder, then rotate the holder so the dark-to-clear transition sits exactly on the horizon line — the step many skip is checking alignment through the viewfinder before locking the holder down.

What maintenance or replacement will the NanoPro MC coating need later?

The Nano multicoating resists dirt, smudges and scratches; routine care is a quick blow-off and a wipe with a clean microfibre cloth — no re-coating service exists, so replace the filter only if the glass chips or the coating wears through after heavy field use.

What limit appears first when using the 4-stop density for long exposures in bright daylight?

The hard-edged gradient itself becomes the limit — if the horizon is uneven or objects cross the transition line, the 4-stop dark band creates an obvious exposure break that cannot be corrected in a single frame.
