“Soft– This filter is ideal for shooting images with
little or no sky. For example, cityscapes, forestry when shooting under a
canopy of trees, close up images in nature. A soft filter is very useful at
blending over obstructions in the images such as buildings, trees, rocks etc.
Medium– This filter offers many of the advantages of the soft but will
have a harder edge to it. This makes it a great alternative to a soft filter
when there is a scene that has a sky area but perhaps this is partially covered
by the landscape or has a jagged horizon. This filter is soft enough to use
over many smaller obstacles in the horizon but will also offer the strength of
the filter in the area you need it which is often closer to the horizon. This
filter in its 100mm and SW150 versions are a good alternative to a soft filter
when used on a APS-C (or smaller) camera. It is also worth noting that the
100mm and SW150mm versions of this filter offer the identical graduation to the
Sev5n’s soft edge.
Hard– This filter is our most popular graduation and suits most scenes
where there is a sky area but perhaps the horizon is partially covered by the
landscape. This filter is soft enough to use over many obstacles in the horizon
but is not as soft as the medium filter. This graduation is identical to the
Sev5n’s medium edge.
Very Hard– This filter has a very hard edge and is very useful for images
such as seascapes where there is a more definite and flat horizon. This filter
is only available in the 100mm or SW150 versions and is a good alternative to a
hard filter when used on a APS-C (or smaller) camera. This graduation is
identical to the Sev5n’s hard edge.”
