LEE Sunset Yellow Hard Graduated Filter 4x6" Resin #SUNYH

Sunset Yellow Hard Graduated Filter

The LEE Sunset Yellow Hard Graduated Filter is a 4x6 inch resin filter designed to add warm sunset tones to photographs. Its hard-edge graduation creates a defined transition between the coloured and clear portions. The filter fits Lee filter holder systems for use with compatible lenses. It is intended for photographers who want to enhance golden-hour colour directly in-camera.

Hard-edge graduation for defined horizons

This filter replaces the need to rely solely on post-processing to introduce sunset colour across a scene. The hard edge suits compositions where the horizon or transition line is sharp and clearly defined, such as open landscapes or city skylines. A soft-edge graduated filter would be preferable when the horizon is uneven or obscured by mountains, trees or buildings. The hard edge is worth choosing when precise placement of the colour boundary is required.

Resin construction and filter-system compatibility

The filter is made from optical resin rather than glass, which reduces weight but makes the surface more susceptible to scratches if handled roughly. It requires a Lee filter holder and appropriate adapter rings for the lens thread size in use; it cannot be screwed directly onto a lens. The 4x6 inch format is specific to the Lee system and will not fit holders designed for smaller square or rectangular filter sizes.
