The density is sufficient to bring the highlights back from clipping without being \"obvious.\" It's the grad filter that just disappears into your composition to create a subtle balance in the final image. The soft edge works well over a variety of terrain, such as mountains, meaning that this filter is extremely versatile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlackstone ND filters are a technological leap-frog advancement over competing ND filters. Legacy dye-based ND filters suffer from serious colour cast. The first generation of Vapor Deposition Coated (VDC) ND filters have largely corrected the colour cast problem, but lack the ability to resolve high-megapixel camera without diffusing the image. Wine Country Camera's exclusive Blackstone ND features the next generation of vapor deposition coating that is both perfectly neutral across all spectrums of light (including UV and IR) and resolves the image with zero diffusion effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVisible Light + UV \u0026amp; IR\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDigital cameras place a far greater demand on filters to perform across the entire light spectrum due to the digital sensor's ability to record both UV and Infrared light. Legacy “stoppers” are now obsolete as the digital sensor records both the colour cast and the infrared light pollution that overwhelms the sensor and causes digital artifacts. Blackstone's NextGen VCD technology is perfectly neutral across all spectrums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFire Polished Schott Ultra White Glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're going to build the best ND filter in the world, use the best glass in the world. Period. Schott's Ultra White optical glass has a crystal-like appearance and extremely high transmittance across the visible light spectrum. Schott Ultra White glass features an extremely flat, fire polished surface to eliminate any visible distortions caused by surface imperfections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e100+ Megapixel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe trajectory of cameras and megapixels is an obvious one. 35mm sensors are regularly resolving 40+ to 50+ megapixels, while medium format cameras are at 150 megapixels. Many filters (especially bonded ones) simply cannot resolve light at a sufficient resolution. The result is blurring of the image. Blackstone ND filters are designed and extensively tested on high megapixel Phase One cameras to ensure that they resolve to the highest degree possible. The Blackstone ND coating is the state of the art in ND science. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIncludes Protective Filter Vault\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Blackstone ND filter includes a protective filter vault for free (a $35 value). Filter vaults protect the filter from fingerprints and damage. When used in the Wine Country Camera filter holder system, they create a light tight enclosure to eliminate reflections behind your filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWine Country Camera's innovative filter holder system redefined how photographers use filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur holder system focuses usability once the camera is on the tripod, and allows the photographer to fine tune their images using an iterative workflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWCC Quality\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur mission is clear.
