[Tim Tyler]

Schneider Optics announces the latest addition to its renowned line of professional filters for motion picture and digital cinematography, the Schneider ND Dual Grad filter.

 

Designed to control exposure and/or depth of field for 2 different areas of frame, the Schneider Dual Grad provides 2 graduated ND attenuator sections. One, covering 2/3 of the glass, graduates from 4 stops to the central clear, while the smaller 1/3 section goes from 2 stops at the outer edge of the glass to the clear section (ND1.2 up/.6 down) . The Schneider ND Dual Grad is ideal for diminishing distracting backgrounds and foregrounds ? for example, neutralizing the sky above and the pavement below when used for a car shot.

 

The Schneider ND Dual Grad filter is available in the 6.6?x6.6?size.
