Description

Graduated filters (or more simply, grads) have the neutral density effect on half of the filter. The most common use for a graduated filter is to reduce the luminosity of a bright sky balancing it to the terrain below, providing a more neutral color representation than HDR techniques. It also provides a more authentic shot, with far less work required in post processing, too.

Soft edge grads are versatile multi-use filters used to balance the luminosity of a bright sky with the below terrain. The soft edge makes it effortless to insert into the scene, especially over bright horizons or mountains. This soft edge grad filter is an absolute must-have for any landscape photographer.

Unique Lap & Polish Technique

Our signature Lap & Polish technique, was first reserved only for our cinema-grade filters, but is now used for our Firecrest Ultra Filters as well! This means your Firecrest Ultra Filters benefit from enhanced clarity and sharpness, making it one of the most optically flat filters in the world.

Different Densities and Sizes

Our Firecrest Ultra Range is available in a wide range of circular threaded filters, and 100x100mm square for use in our Firecrest Filter Holder system. as well as a wide range of popular densities depending on the exposure you want, from 1 to 10 stops, 13 and 16 stops, and 18 to 24 stops.

Firecrest at the Forefront of Innovation

Firecrest created a new range of neutral filters that no other brand has been able to create! We bonded the filter coating in the center of two pieces of optical grade polished glass, shielding your filter from wear and tear, as well as giving it more strength than a single piece of glass.

Put to the Test
Our Firecrest Filters outsold all other filters this past year for the North American solar eclipse. Firecrest Ultra offers some of the highest densities ever seen in the photography market with up to 24 stops!

moving the filter in the filter holder

Hi
I feel a little worried by the fact that i have to force the glass filter in the holder
Also, I had problems with cold welding of Aluminum based filter and stepup/down adapters rims
Do brass rims solve the problems

FORMATT HITECH AMBASSADORS

Although I enjoy all aspects of photography my real passion lies in long-exposures of landscapes, seascapes, and cityscapes. I came across the brand Formatt-Hitech after meeting one of their featured artists on a long-exposure workshop. When I saw the results of how you can control elements of nature with time, I realized I was able to bring out my love for art within the photos I took.

In recent years I've been thrilled to have won national competitions and to have had work featured in both print and broadcast media. The award which means the most to me was winning the 70th Anniversary "Moments in Time" competition held by the Campaign for National Parks. Getting involved with CNP has led to some great opportunities, including being accepted into the Formatt Hitech Ambassador program.

Exploring the great outdoors really helps me to unwind from day to day pressures and balance the mind. I often become overwhelmed by the scenes in front of me and struggle with appropriate composition but since falling in love with long exposure techniques I can slow things down and sometimes turn a mediocre shot into something special.
