ND filters in landscape photography: the most important information
Neutral density filters (ND filters) are an indispensable tool in landscape photography. These filters reduce the amount of light without changing the colours. By reducing the light intensity, ND filters enable longer exposure times in daylight, which leads to spectacular effects in your shots.
Why do we use ND filters?
The exposure time is extended
One reason for using ND filters is the ability to extend the exposure time. It is particularly useful for documenting movement in your images, such as flowing water or drifting clouds. A longer exposure time gives your landscape photos a soft, flowing expression.
Control over lighting
ND filters also give you more control over the exposure of your images. In situations with strong sunlight, it can be difficult to achieve a correct exposure. The problem can be solved with an ND filter by reducing the amount of light emitted by the sensor. This allows you to work with larger apertures, resulting in a shallower depth of field and better background blur.
ND Filter 12 apertures from Haida
ND filter 12 apertures with filter thread from Haida The Haida Slim grey filter ND 3.6 is a thicker grey filter, which is often referred to as an extreme ND filter and is frequently used in landscape photography. It fits lenses with a filter thread. It is uniformly grey (neutral) in colour and reduces the amount of light entering the lens. The resulting reduction in exposure time by a factor of 4000 enables a slower shutter speed when taking photos.

Haida PROII MC ND Filter at 3.0
Haida PROII MC grey filter ND3.0 The exposure time can be extended with a grey filter or neutral density filter (ND filter). This means that people or vehicles are not visible in the image, which can be useful if you want to take architectural photos without personnel. This allows anyone to take impressive architectural photos. This grey filter has a neutral density of ND3.0, which corresponds to a 1000-fold reduction factor or 10 f-stops.

Haida NanoPro Magnetic ND1.8 Filter with Adapter Ring
ND filter magnetic 6 stops from Haida The Haida magnetic system is an easy-to-use system. With this system, the filter is held magnetically on the lens. Unscrewing and screwing on is no longer necessary. Filter changing has never been so easy. The ND glass filter has a thickness of 0.8 mm. The ultra-flat design allows the use of several filters without the risk of vignetting. This neutral density filter has a neutral density of ND 1.8, which corresponds to an extension factor of 64 or 6 f-stops. Such filters are also referred to as Littel stoppers.

ND Filter 10 apertures from Haida
ND filter 10 f-stops from Haida The Haida Slim grey filter ND 3.0 is a thicker grey filter, the "always-with-you filter", so to speak, which is often called the Big Stopper and is indispensable in landscape photography. It fits lenses with a filter thread. It is uniformly coloured grey (neutral) and reduces the amount of light entering the lens. The resulting increase in exposure time by a factor of 1000 enables a slower shutter speed when taking photographs.

ND Filter 4 apertures from Haida
ND filter grey filter 4 f-stops from Haida The Haida Slim grey filter ND 1.2 is one of the heavier grey filters and fits lenses with a filter thread. It has a uniform grey (neutral) colour and reduces the amount of light entering the lens. The resulting 16-fold increase in exposure time enables a lower f-number for video filming and photography.

Solar screw filter from Haida
Haida Solar screw-in filter with 20 f-stops The Haida Solar filter with a neutral density of 6.0 produces images with a neutral color tone and without color cast or loss of sharpness. The 20-stage exposure reduction, the built-in infrared blocking and the density of 6.0 block invisible radiation. This lies outside the visual spectrum that can be captured by the image sensors. This can affect the capture of clear images.

ND Filter 6 apertures from Haida
ND filter grey filter 6 f-stops from Haida The Haida Slim grey filter ND 1.8 is a medium-strength grey filter which is often referred to as a Little Stopper. It fits lenses with a filter thread. It is uniformly coloured grey (neutral) and reduces the amount of light entering the lens. The resulting 64-fold increase in exposure time enables a lower f-number when taking photos.

Haida NanoPro Magnetic ND1.8 Filter with Adapter Ring 67 mm
Magnetic ND filter, 6 stops, 67 mm, from Haida The Haida magnetic system is easy to use. With this system, the filter is held magnetically on the lens. Screwing it on and off is no longer necessary. Changing filters has never been easier.The ND glass filter has a thickness of 0.8 mm. The ultra-flat design allows multiple filters to be used without the risk of vignetting. This gray filter has a neutral density of ND 1.8, which corresponds to an extension factor of 64 or 6 f-stops. Such filters are also known as Littel stoppers. It is very easy to switch between the different filters or stack them, depending on what you need when taking photos. Between shots, you can attach the optional magnetic lens cap while the magnetic adapter is still mounted to protect your filters or lens. Scratch-resistant and hydrophobic coatings on the glass surfaces protect the filters from wear and tear and provide an improved beading effect when in contact with water or oil. This makes cleaning easier. All in all, this new magnetic system is well thought out and will give you a lot of pleasure when taking photos thanks to its ease of use. All the advantages of the ND filter at a glance: Magnetic attachment Easy to change and stack filters Lightweight, flat filters Filters can be stacked without vignetting Thinner glass Compact to transport Scope of delivery 1x NanoPro magnetic filter ND 1.8 (600x), 67 mm1x magnetic adapter ring, 67 mm1x filter bag
