LEE Filters 90x75mm Seven5 Coral 2 Soft Graduated Resin Filter

Resin filters are made from lightweight optically correct polymeric materials. This ensures they are durable, easy to handle and can be wiped clean if sprayed by the sea or sand during a shoot.

Soft graduated filters means the transition between the coated and uncoated portions of a soft graduated filter is less sharp and more subtle than in a hard grad. A soft grad is recommended when the variation in light readings within a scene is less pronounced and on occasions when a hard grad would be apparent in the result, showing a line along the composition. The transition in tones from bright to dark should appear very natural when using a soft grad.

Coral filters were developed for the movie industry to give accurate colour temperature corrections with a bit of added red. Other filters are regarded as giving neutral warmth however the coral range has a pinkish warm –up and are a popular alternative. When placed across the sky a warm soft hue is introduced, when inverted they bring tone to greenery in the foreground.

The Coral 2 is part of the Coral Light range and is a weaker filter in the range, the higher the number, the further the colour correction.
