Lee Filters 0.9 Graduated Neutral Density Filter Very Hard Edge 150x170mm camera filter

Essential Landscape Filter

The Lee Filters 0.9 Graduated Neutral Density Filter with a very hard edge measures 150x170mm and fits the SW150 holder system. It reduces exposure by three stops across the graduated portion to balance bright skies with darker foregrounds. The resin construction provides optical clarity for landscape and outdoor photography. This new filter enables precise control over high-contrast scenes.

Holder Integration And Creative Control

The filter slides within the SW150 holder so you can align the hard transition exactly with the horizon line. It allows slower shutter speeds to blur movement in waterfalls, clouds, or traffic while maintaining correct exposure. Wider apertures become usable for shallow depth of field without overexposure in bright light. High-speed film above ISO 400 can be shot outdoors by lowering the effective sensitivity.

For Precise Horizon Management

Photographers who need an abrupt transition between filtered and clear areas will benefit from the very hard edge design. The 150mm width suits the SW150 system and permits vertical adjustment for composition. Buyers using smaller filter systems or those wanting a soft, gradual blend should look at other options. Videographers with fixed shutter speeds filming snow or sand will find the density useful.
