Neutral Density Filter lee filters ND6GS100x150U2 Soft 0.6 — 100 x 150 mm graduated neutral density 0.6

Neutral Density Filter lee filters ND6GS100x150U2 Soft 0.6 is a 100 x 150 mm graduated neutral density filter with a soft transition and optical density 0.6 (2 stops). It is designed to balance exposure between bright skies and darker foregrounds in landscapes and other high-contrast scenes by darkening part of the image while leaving the rest clear. The filter is made of resin, measures 100 × 150 mm and has a thickness of 2 mm; its 150 mm height allows vertical adjustment in a compatible filter holder.

Advantages

The soft-edge graduated neutral density design produces a smooth, natural-looking transition between the darkened and clear areas, helping to preserve detail in both sky and foreground. The 0.6 (2-stop) density is a commonly used value that compensates many average bright-sky-to-foreground situations. The resin construction and 100 × 150 mm size make the filter compatible with standard 100 mm filter holder systems while the 2 mm thickness ensures easy handling and insertion.

Suitable for

• Landscape photography with high dynamic range between sky and foreground
• Outdoor scenes with bright skies and darker foregrounds
• Long-exposure and creative exposures where selective darkening is needed

How to use

Mount the 100 × 150 mm filter into a compatible 100 mm filter holder and position the soft graduated transition so that the darkened area covers the bright sky while leaving the foreground clear. Slide the filter vertically within the holder to align the transition with the horizon or other scene elements. Meter and expose for the combined scene or use exposure bracketing as needed; the 0.6 density reduces light by approximately two stops in the darkened area.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the soft-edge gradient in scenes where the horizon or brightness transition is irregular (for example, mountains or trees). Combine with a polarizer if needed for reflections and color saturation, and store the resin filter flat and protected to avoid scratches.
